Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue is dedicated to developments in cyber security from an interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary perspective and focuses on challenges in relation to (i) companies; (ii) governments; and (iii) society. The Issue will establish how technology and human-technology interaction enhances cyber security from a holistic perspective so that society is better protected from sustained cyber attacks. We welcome all kinds of contributions, including empirical papers, practitioner-oriented papers, theoretical papers and conceptual papers, with an emphasis on linking theory with practice.
The areas to be addressed include:
Trustworthiness, software, cloud computing, artificial intelligence vulnerabilities and solutions, the use of the advanced biometrics, issues in blockchain technology, improving cyber security systems and networks, cyber security models, management policy and new business models, ethical hacking, the protection of critical national infrastructure and the protection of critical information infrastructure, smart cities, the consumer and privacy, counteracting fake news and disinformation, social media networks, online advertising, the Internet of Things, educational policy, the psychology of cyber crime, ransomware, and government policy.
A range of related bodies of knowledge can be drawn on, including business continuity management, crisis and emergency management, organizational resilience, and risk management. In addition, the Special Issue will be open to a range of authors, including scientists and social scientists.
