CALL FOR PAPERS



International Journal of Secure Software Engineering (IJSSE)



Martin Gilje Jaatun (SINTEF Digital, Norway)





Published by IGI Global: http://www.igi-global.com/



Description

The International Journal of Secure Software Engineering (IJSSE) publishes original research on the security concerns that construe during the software development practice. IJSSE promotes the idea of developing security-aware software systems from the ground up. This journal examines the software security from a software engineering perspective and addresses technical, as well as managerial aspects of secure software engineering. IJSSE includes all aspects of software security in the development, deployment, and management processes of software systems.



Invitation

The Editor-in-Chief of the International Journal of Secure Software Engineering (IJSSE) would like to invite you to consider submitting a manuscript for inclusion in this scholarly journal. The following describes the mission, the coverage, and the guidelines for submission to IJSSE.



Mission

The mission of the International Journal of Secure Software Engineering (IJSSE) is to provide a forum for software engineers and security experts to exchange innovative ideas in security-aware software systems and address security concerns in software development practices. This journal discusses methods and applications of systematic, quantifiable approaches to the development, operation, and maintenance of secure software systems. IJSSE addresses the problem of development duality between constructing a functional software system and constructing a secure system at the same time. Emphasizing security issues of software from a software engineering perspective, this journal promotes the idea that security issues must be an integral part in every phase of software development and advocates the development of security-aware software systems from the ground up. This journal facilitates promotion and understanding of the technical as well as managerial issues related to secure software systems and their development practices. Targeting researchers, academicians, software engineers, and field experts, this journal presents cutting-edge industry solutions in software engineering and security research.

Coverage

Topics to be discussed in this journal include (but are not limited to) the following:


· Aspect-oriented software development for secure software

· Build security in (BSI)

· Dependable systems
