Journal of Cybersecurity publishes accessible articles describing original research in the inherently interdisciplinary cyber domain. Journal of Cybersecurity is premised on the belief that computer science-based approaches, while necessary, are not sufficient to tackle cybersecurity challenges. Instead, scholarly contributions from a range of disciplines are needed to understand the varied aspects of cybersecurity.

Journal of Cybersecurity provides a hub around which the interdisciplinary cybersecurity community can form. The journal is committed to providing quality empirical research, as well as scholarship, that is grounded in real-world implications and solutions.

Journal of Cybersecurity solicits articles adhering to the following, broadly constructed and interpreted, aspects of cybersecurity:

    anthropological and cultural studies;
    computer science and security;
    security and crime science;
    cryptography and associated topics;
    security economics;
    human factors and psychology;
    legal aspects of information security;
    political and policy perspectives;
    strategy and international relations;
    and privacy.

Authors should ensure that their articles can be read at both interdisciplinary and disciplinary levels. For example, a paper may require, for completely rigorous communication, a technical mathematical, statistical, or other specialized section. Authors are expected to include an introductory summary of the content of the section describing its significance, thereby allowing non-experts to skip details as necessary.
