Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) is an emerging trend, including in nontraditional technological sector (e.g., oil and gas industry). There are, however, a number of research challenges such using cryptography and other techniques to ensure security and privacy in IIoT applications and services. In this special issue, we present existing state-of-the-art advances reported by the 21 accepted papers. We then conclude the special issue with a number of potential research agenda.
