Information Security Journals

The good, the bad, and the ugly

Below, I've listed a bunch of security-related academic journals. Each journal appears in one of the following categories:

The good — These are the journals that stand out in my mind as having consistently high quality articles.
The OK — In my view, articles in these journals are significantly more uneven in quality than those among The good journals, but still generally not bad.
The bad — These are pretty bad.
The not sure — For these journals, I just can't tell.
The ugly — These are "open access" journals that charge authors a fee for publication. Below, I discuss why I consider such journals to be totally bogus.

The ratings here are my own personal opinion. I've published in a fair number of these journal and I've reviewed articles for many more. Just because I've published in (or reviewed for) a journal, doesn't necessarily mean it gets a high rating. For example, I've published in one of the journals in the bad category, and in one of the ugly journals too (I've got an excuse for that one). On the other hand, I've never published in several of the good journals. So, I'd like to think that I'm being at least moderately objective.

Of course, any rating system is going to depend somewhat on personal preferences, so here's mine. I'm definitely biased against overly theoretical articles, at least in the security domain. I'm a mathematician by training, so I can appreciate the value of a good theorem. However, it seems to me that more often than not, theoretical results in security serve primarily to obfuscate essentially simple ideas, rather than to enlighten. Maybe someday I'll get smarter and realize that I'm wrong about this.

The main reason I put together this list is because I've recently seen a lot of "open access" security journals that charge authors a fee for the privilege of publishing an article. In some cases, such journals don't make it very clear that the author has to pay a fee. If nothing else, this list should make it easier to avoid pay-for-publication journals, if that's your desire (as it is mine).

The purpose of open access is to make publications freely available online. This sounds like a noble idea, since everyone knows that free stuff is always better. However, charging authors a fee to publish is, IMHO, utterly indefensible. I can think of at least three serious problems with such an approach. First, to create any respectable article, an author has to do a lot of work, usually for little or no financial reward. Charging an author money to publish is like charging a medical doctor a fee for the right to treat a patient (I hope I didn't just give Obama any ideas…).

Second, charging a fee for publication creates a perverse incentive for a journal. Traditional paper journals bear a cost for each article published and, to survive, they need paid subscribers. Consequently, such journals have a financial incentive to accept only the highest quality papers that they can attract. In contrast, open access journals have a financial incentive to accept as many articles as they can cram into their journal, regardless of quality. Many open access journals are available only in electronic form, which makes this perverse incentive far more perverse.

Third, to my mind, open access looks a whole lot like vanity publishing. It seems to me that any time an author has to pay to get an article published, that article should be highly suspect.

Fourth (this is a bonus gripe), in my view, even journals that offer open access as an option—as opposed to requiring payment for such—have a potential conflict of interest. It's not hard to figure who is going to pay the fees (i.e., well-funded research organizations) and who is not (e.g., researchers at poverty-stricken state universities). Editors have a lot of leeway in deciding what gets published and what doesn't. It would be quite easy for an editor to make sure that the well-funded are favored over the under-funded, without leaving any obvious evidence of bias.

Anyways, without further adieu, here's my list of security journals, with a brief comment on each. Note that within each category, the journals are listed in no particular order. Also, I don't claim that this list is anywhere near exhaustive. If you know of missing security journal that could be included, or if you find errors, please let me know.

The good
- Journal of Computer Virology and Hacking Techniques (formerly Journal of Computer Virology)
  - Abbreviation: JICV
  - Imprint: Springer
  - Comment: This is the only journal that I know of that is focused primarily on malware. Articles are generally of a fairly high quality with a good mix of theory and application. But, much of my recent research has been malware related, so I'm biased.
- Information and Computer Security
  - Abbreviation: ICS
  - Imprint: Emerald
  - Comment: This journal recently changed its name from Information Management & Computer Security, and it still seems to have more emphasis on the "management" aspects than most. Nevertheless, the articles generally have some technical depth.
- Cryptologia
  - Abbreviation: none
  - Imprint: Taylor & Francis
  - Comment: The emphasis is on historical ciphers. Generally, great fun to read and articles almost invariably provide a nice introduction to cryptography and/or a historical topic.
- Journal of Cryptology
  - Abbreviation: JOC
  - Imprint: Springer
  - Comment: The ultimate modern cryptography journal, but definitely not for the faint of heart.
- Journal of Cryptographic Engineering
  - Abbreviation: JCEN
  - Imprint: Springer
  - Comment: A fairly new journal that looks to have some very interesting articles.
- IEEE Transactions on Dependable and Secure Computing
  - Abbreviation: TDSC
  - Imprint: IEEE
  - Comment: Contains a wide variety of articles, and most appear to be interesting and highly relevant. I definitely need to read this one more often.
- IEEE Transactions on Information Forensics and Security
  - Abbreviation: TIFS
  - Imprint: IEEE
  - Comment: In spite of the name, this journal has articles in many areas of security, with only a slight emphasis on forensics. I'm not convinced the articles are consistently that impressive, but hey, it's an IEEE transaction, so it's got to be prestigious, right?
- ACM Transactions on Information and System Security
  - Abbreviation: TISSEC
  - Imprint: ACM
  - Comment: Covers a lot of different topics, usually from a rather theoretical point of view.
The OK
- Information Security Journal: A Global Perspective
  - Abbreviation: ISJ
  - Imprint: Taylor & Francis
  - Comment: Articles here seem to be of consistent good quality, and they cover a wide range of interesting and relevant topics. I've also been impressed by their review process.
- Computers & Security
  - Abbreviation: COSE
  - Imprint: Elsevier
  - Comment: I've reviewed a lot of articles for this journal and even published in it a few times. This one has to have the most annoying review process—both from the perspective of reviewer and reviewee—of any journal I've ever dealt with. I've seen many cases where their reviewers obviously didn't bother to read the articles they're supposedly reviewing. They also seem to take forever to make a decision. And you're unlikely to get the same reviewers for your revised article, which is likely to result in another (interminable) iteration, just to resolve some trivialities.
- IET Information Security
  - Abbreviation: IETIS
  - Imprint: IET
  - Comment: The editorial board is focused on cryptography. Not surprisingly, recent articles tend to be heavy on cryptography, or similar.
- International Journal of Information Security
  - Abbreviation: IJIS
  - Imprint: Springer
  - Comment: Top-heavy with theory.
- Journal of Information Assurance and Security
  - Abbreviation: JIAS
  - Imprint: Dynamic Publishers, Inc.
  - Comment: Looks like an interesting mix of articles. However, in general, I'd suggest a lot of skepticism when it comes to cryptography articles published in general security journals, and this journal has several recent cryptography-related articles. So, reader beware.
- Journal of Computer Security
  - Abbreviation: JCS
  - Imprint: IOS Press
  - Comment: From my perspective, this looks to be way too theoretical. But that's the way some people like their security.
- International Journal of Security and Networks
  - Abbreviation: IJSN
  - Imprint: Inderscience Publishers
  - Comment: Seems to be a pretty solid journal, especially for one without a big-name publisher behind it.
- International Journal of Electronic Security and Digital Forensics
  - Abbreviation: IJESDF
  - Imprint: Inderscience Publishers
  - Comment: Another respectable journal from Inderscience.
- International Journal of Information Privacy, Security and Integrity
  - Abbreviation: IJIPSI
  - Imprint: Inderscience Publishers
  - Comment: Fairly new and looks to be reasonably good.
- Software: Practice and Experience
  - Abbreviation: SPE
  - Imprint: Wiley
  - Comment: This is not a security journal, but they do publish a few articles that are related to security. As the name suggests, this journal is focused on fairly practical software-related topics.
The bad
- International Journal of Computer Network and Information Security
  - Abbreviation: IJCNIS
  - Imprint: MECS Publisher
  - Comment: There's no publication charge, which is the only good thing I can say about it. There is not much of a review process, and it shows in many of the articles. Also, they require Microsoft Word documents for submission—how Mickey Mouse is that?
- International Journal of Information Security and Privacy
  - Abbreviation: IJISP
  - Imprint: IGI Global
  - Comment: This one seems to have an excess of fluff articles.
- Security and Communication Networks
  - Abbreviation: SCN
  - Imprint: Wiley
  - Comment: I really wanted to like this one, but there are several inexcusable problems with their editorial process. Strike 1 — Reviews take absolutely forever. You'll be lucky to hear anything from them within a year, and even that will require constantly pestering the editor. This is particularly odd given that their "editorial board" includes more people than the New York City telephone directory. Strike 2 — Recent issues contain a plethora of questionable crypto-related articles. While I like cryptography (a lot), it's a field where you simply cannot fake it. Strike 3 — Obvious grammatical errors abound. That's three strikes, and you're out!
The not sure
- Journal of Network and Information Security
  - Abbreviation: JNIS
  - Imprint: Publishing India
  - Comment: The first issue was published in late 2013 and to date, the results are not impressive. This journal seems to be stuck in a time warp (the 1980s, to be precise) since it only accepts submissions in "OpenOffice, Microsoft Word, RTF, or WordPerfect document file format". Also, based on the website, English grammar is not their strong suit. On the upside, at least they do not charge a publication fee.
- Journal of Information System Security
  - Abbreviation: JISSec
  - Imprint: None
  - Comment: A quick look at recent articles reveals a lot of policy-related and similar puff pieces.
- International Journal of Digital Evidence
  - Abbreviation: IJDE
  - Imprint: Utica College
  - Comment: As the name suggests, this one is very specialized. As far as I can tell, it contain only "white papers", not your usual technical journal papers.
- Information Security Technical Report
  - Abbreviation: ISTR
  - Imprint: Elsevier
  - Comment: Looks like it might be interesting, but every issue appears to be a "special issue", i.e., focused on a single topic, which could make it tricky to get published here.
- International Journal of Multimedia Intelligence and Security
  - Abbreviation: IJMIS
  - Imprint: Inderscience Publishers
  - Comment: Seems to have stopped publishing—the most recent issue I can find appeared in 2011.
- International Journal of Information and Computer Security
  - Abbreviation: IJICS
  - Imprint: Inderscience Publishers
  - Comment: The last issue available seems to be from mid-2012, so this one might be deceased too.
- Designs, Codes and Cryptography
  - Abbreviation: DCC
  - Imprint: Springer
  - Comment: A strong journal, but, really, this is a math journal. Often, the link (if any) to cryptography is tenuous, at best.
The ugly
- International Journal on Network Security
  - Abbreviation: IJNS
  - Imprint: ACEEE
  - Comment: Yes, there are at least 2 journals with IJNS as their abbreviation. I have to admit that I'm not familiar with this journal and, apparently, they like it that way. Although it's said to be open access, I can't seem to access any of their articles. Does this journal really exist? In any case, ACEEE is on "Beall's List" of predatory open access publishers (see below under "other relevant links") and that's good enough for me.
- International Journal of Information Sciences and Computer Engineering
  - Abbreviation: IJISCE
  - Imprint: None
  - Comment: This "open access" journal charges authors a publication fee of 285 euros. It also seems to publish lots of very dubious papers.
- International Journal of Network Security & Its Applications
  - Abbreviation: IJNSA
  - Imprint: AIRCC
  - Comment: Charges $120. I guess that might be considered a bargain in this genre. But, come to think of it, you usually get what you pay for. AIRCC is on "Beall's List" of predatory open access publishers (see below under "other relevant links").
- International Journal of Computer Science and Network Security
  - Abbreviation: IJCSNS
  - Imprint: None
  - Comment: This journal has a $400 "publication fee". This one looks to be even more totally bogus than the other totally bogus journals listed here. That's an accomplishment, of sorts. To top it all off, this one is on "Beall's List" of predatory open access standalone journals (see below under "other relevant links").
- International Journal of Information and Network Security
  - Abbreviation: IJINS
  - Imprint: IAES
  - Comment: Charges an $80 publication fee and, get this, a $40 "fast-track review" fee, which guarantees a review within two weeks. What a joke.
- Journal of Information Security
  - Abbreviation: JIS
  - Imprint: SCIRP
  - Comment: Charges $500 per article. Once upon a time, I actually published an article in this one, but back then they were not charging a fee. If I'd realized they were planning to charge authors for publication, I would have avoided it like the plague. The publisher, SCIRP, is on "Beall's List" of predatory open access publishers (see below under "other relevant links").
- Security Informatics
  - Abbreviation: none
  - Imprint: Springer
  - Comment: Open access (charges $1015 per article) with a heavy emphasis on policy (that's 4 strikes). Do people actually pay this outrageous fee? And what's up with Springer getting into this scam? I hate to admit it, but this one might actually have a few respectable articles.
- EURASIP Journal on Information Security
  - Abbreviation: unknown
  - Imprint: Springer
  - Comment: Another Springer open access journal—this one charges $735 per article (up from $665 a year previous). Apparently, this journal was recently transferred from some minor league publisher to Springer, and it shows (although less than when I originally wrote this).
- International Journal of Innovative Research in Information Security
  - Abbreviation: IJIRIS
  - Imprint: AM Publications
  - Comment: A new (as of 2014) open access journal, with a publication charge of $65. Content-wise, this one seems to have perfected the art of total vacuity.
- International Journal on Cryptography and Information Security
  - Abbreviation: IJCIS
  - Imprint: AIRCC Publishing Corporation
  - Comment: This open access journal charges $120 and requires use of their MS Word template. Need I say more? No, but I will. As the name implies, the focus is on cryptography, and a lot of cryptography means a lot of math typesetting… in MS Word. The results are not pretty with, for example, blurry screen snapshots of formulas (originally typeset in TeX) pasted into published documents. I wouldn't accept that in an undergraduate student's report. AIRCC is on "Beall's List" of predatory open access publishers (see below under "other relevant links").
- International Journal of Network Security
  - Abbreviation: IJNS
  - Imprint: none
  - Comment: This one charges authors $200. 'Nuff said.
Other relevant links
- Microsoft Academic gives this ranking of information security journals.
- Beall's List consists of "potential, possible, or probable predatory scholarly open-access publishers" along with a list of unaffiliated journals that (in Beall's opinion) fit the same description. While this is definitely a valuable resource, IMHO, Beall ignores the root cause of the problem, which is open access itself. If academic authors did not pay to publish, the sorts of abuses that Beall documents would not occur. In any case, it's interesting to note that number of journals on Beall's list has grown rapidly over the past few years—nicely paralleling the increased emphasis on open access.
