Computer Security Day

The 30th of November is Computer Security Day, an annual event that is observed worldwide. It helps to raise awareness concerning the security of computers, the Internet and any other electronic devices. And to remind people to ensure their passwords are updated regularly, their personal information is safe and secure, and their systems are protected.

To support this international event, SpringerOpen is offering a collection of information security related open access articles. Take a closer look and get involved in this event!
