Call for Papers Special Edition Cyber Terrorism Journal of Information Warfare
The development of the Information Society has resulted in many positive contributions to society, but a darker side of the Information Society has been emerging. The appearance of hackers, computer viruses and the development of Cyber Terrorism as a new threat, could in theory harm the very fabric of the Information Society. This special issue of the Journal of Information Warfare will look at the impact of these darker issues and whether they will hinder or aid the development of the Information society. In developing an improved understanding of Cyber Terrorism and its impact on society, papers are sought for a special issue of Journal of Information Warfare. Such articles might include insights into the aims and roles of Cyber Terrorist groups, the relevance of Cyber Terrorism, ways in which society and organisations can develop strategies to deal with the risks involved and, case studies focusing on the issues of Cyber Terrorism. Contributed papers may deal with but, are not limited to:
Cyber Terrorism; Cyber Terrorism fact or fiction?; Hackers in the 21st Century; Hactivism; Cyber Terrorists and National Infrastructure Protection; Security Policies and strategies for dealing with Cyber Terrorists; Security Modeling; Information Warfare and Cyber Terrorists; Cyber Terrorist Ethics.
