Published Continuous Volume. Est. 2020.
The International Journal of Security and Privacy in Pervasive Computing (IJSPPC) is an international refereed research journal that examines the growing issues of information security and privacy in a hyperconnected society. The journal integrates the disciplines of pervasive and ubiquitous computing, the Internet of Things, wireless sensor networks, automatic identification, real-time localization, information processing, cloud computing, and mass data storage. The journal provides a forum to information technology educators, researchers, and practitioners to advance the practice and understanding of pervasive and ubiquitous computing and the challenges that arise in protecting and securing data. The journal features a major emphasis on how to realize pervasive and ubiquitous computing technology and how to build the system in applications. IJSPPC publishes full-length research papers, state-of-the-art reviews, insightful research and practice notes, case studies and book reviews from all areas of information security and privacy that are selected after a rigorous blind review by experts in the field.

Mission

The mission of the International Journal of Security and Privacy in Pervasive Computing (IJSPPC) is to ensure the security and privacy of personal information and data collected through combining evolving technologies and networking frameworks. Ubiquitous networking and pervasive computing are becoming more effective for solving intelligent systems–related problems, for example, intelligent security, intelligent transportation, intelligent environmental protection, intelligent logistics, and so forth. Ubiquitous computing connects not only networked terminals like mobile phones, computers, smart devices, but also daily life objects that have been considered just “un-networked things” or “inert objects”. This increasing connectiveness provides more accessibility to information, making it imperative that best practices in securing data are implemented and followed. This journal encourages the further development of tools and techniques, and discusses strategies to secure information shared across the Internet of Things, wireless networks, etc.

Submission

Prospective authors should note that only original and previously unpublished article manuscripts will be considered. Interested authors must consult the Journal Guidelines for Manuscript Submission at https://www.igi-global.com/publish/contributor-resources/journal-guidelines-for-submission/?titleid=1160 PRIOR to submission. Any further questions may be answered at https://www.igi-global.com/publish/contributor-resources/before-you-write/. All article manuscript submissions will be forwarded to at least three members of the editorial review board of the journal for a double-blind peer review. The final decision regarding acceptance/revision/rejection will be based on the reviews received from the reviewers.

Starting January 1st, 2023, this journal will be converting from Hybrid Open Access to full Gold Open Access, meaning from January 1st, 2023 onward all of its published contents will be 100% open access and the copyright of the published work will stay with the author(s) ((Note: IGI Global open access journal article manuscript publishing offers authors the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International (CC BY 4.0) licensing arrangement. The copyright for the work remains solely with the author(s) of the article manuscript), and the publisher will provide the published contents free of charge globally (there will no longer be subscription fees or payment of any kind required for individuals and libraries to access and utilize the published contents).

Once the journal is converted to Gold Open Access in 2023 and will no longer have subscription revenue backing it, the journal will be heavily reliant on Open Access Article Processing Charges (APCs) payment provided by either the author(s) or his/her/their respective institution or another funding agency, AFTER the article manuscript submission has been through a full double-blind peer review and the Editor-in-Chief at his/her full discretion has decided to accept the manuscript based on the results of the double-blind peer review process. The APC will offset the costs of all of the activities associated with the publication of the article manuscript, including the digital tools used to support the manuscript management and review process, the typesetting, formatting and layout, online hosting, the submission of the journal’s content to numerous abstracts, directories, and indexes, third party software (plagiarism checks), editorial support which includes manuscript tracking, communications, submission guideline checks, communications with authors and reviewers, as well as all promotional support and activities which includes metadata distribution, press releases, promotional communications, web content, ads, fliers, brochures, postcards, etc. for the journal and its published contents; and the fact that all published articles will be freely accessible and able to be posted and disseminated widely by the authors.

The Article Processing Charge (APC) for this journal is currently set at $1,300 USD and authors will not be asked to provide payment of the APC fee (directly to the publisher) until AFTER their manuscript has gone through the full double-blind peer review process and the Editor-in-Chief at his/her full discretion has decided to accept the manuscript based on the results of the double-blind peer review process. Please note that there is absolutely NO correlation between the APC (Article Processing Charge) being paid by the author and the results of review process outcomes.
