*Call for Papers: International Journal of Internet of Things and Cyber-Assurance* (http://www.inderscience.com/info/ingeneral/forthcoming.php?jcode=ijitca)

*Journal Overview:* Cyber-assurance is the justified confidence that Internet of Things (IoT) networked systems and devices are adequately secured and engineered to meet operational needs, even in the presence of cyber-attacks, failures, accidents and unexpected events. IoT devices and networks may range from hand-held mobile devices to a centralized high-performance cloud computing environment consisting of heterogeneous communication systems of both tactical (mobile, wireless) and fixed (wired) communications infrastructures. The IoT must address the delivery of authentic, accurate, secure, reliable and timely information (regardless of threat conditions) over these distributed and heterogeneous computing and communication systems. The IJITCA is looking to increase the visibility of current research and emergent trends in cyber-assurance for IoT networks, applications, architectures and information security methods based on theoretical aspects and studies of practical applications. The IJITCA covers fundamental to advanced topics necessary to grasp the IoT current cyber-assurance issues, challenges and solutions as well as future trends in secure IoT devices and networks.

The journal focuses on the security needs of these environments, highlighting key issues, identifying the associated security implications so that the general participants can readily grasp the core ideas in this area of research. Recommended topics include, but are not limited to, the following:

- Hacking IoT computing networks/devices - SDN/NFV security architectures and designs - Vulnerabilities and exploits in SDN/NFV architectures - Automated IoT computing vulnerability identification, - Research on automated IoT computing vulnerability assessment and intrusion detection tools and techniques - Secure IoT radio frequency (RF) signal processing - Distributed 5G IoT networks using embedded sensors and actuators - Genetic algorithms used to spawn and control intelligent agents for information assurance for IoT computing devices - Network management and visualization tools that support real time planning and control of tactical nets as well as tools for intrusion detection and forensic analysis in hybrid IoT computing networks - IoT Computing frameworks which allow diverse input data streams to be transformed into a unified information fusion space for processing using more unified and tractable procedures - Development of secure design methods, architectures, and implementations to minimize IoT computing power dissipation - IoT Computing sensor networking systems, including signal processing and communications interactions, distributed detection and estimation, and networking protocols, - High frequency IoTComputing devices and modules to enhance situational analysis and increase the communication functionality

*PAPER SUBMISSION*

Submitted articles should not have been previously published or be currently under consideration for publication elsewhere. Conference papers may only be submitted if the paper has been completely re-written and the author has cleared any necessary permissions with the copyright owner if it has been previously copyrighted. Briefs and research notes are not published in this journal. All our articles go through a double-blind review process. All authors must declare they have read and agreed to the content of the submitted article. A full statement of our Ethical Guidelines for Authors (PDF) https://www.inderscience.com/www/dl.php?filename=authorethics.pdf is available. There are no charges for publishing with Inderscience, unless you require your article to be Open Access (OA).

All articles for this journal must be submitted using our online submissions system:
