The International Journal of Systems and Software Security and Protection (IJSSSP) publishes original research on the security concerns that arise with systems and software. IJSSSP 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. IJSSSP includes all aspects of systems and software security in the development, deployment, and management processes of software systems.
Mission & Scope:
The mission of the International Journal of Systems and Software Security and Protection (IJSSSP) is to provide a forum for software engineers and security experts to exchange innovative ideas in security-aware software systems and address security concerns related to systems and software.

The mission of the International Journal of Systems and Software Security and Protection (IJSSSP) is to provide a forum for software engineers and security experts to exchange innovative ideas in security-aware software systems and address security concerns related to systems and software. This journal discusses methods and applications of systematic, quantifiable approaches to the development, operation, and maintenance of secure software systems. IJSSSP 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.

- Digital tools used to support the manuscript management and review process
- Typesetting, formatting and layout
- Online hosting
- Submission of the journal's content to numerous abstracts, directories, and indexes
- Third-party software (e.g. plagiarism checks)
- Editorial support which includes manuscript tracking, communications, submission guideline checks, and communications with authors and reviewers
- All promotional support and activities which include metadata distribution, press releases, promotional communications, web content, ads, fliers, brochures, postcards, etc. for the journal and its published contents
- The fact that all published articles will be freely accessible and able to be posted and disseminated widely by
the authors - Professional line-by-line English language copy editing and proofreading*
*This service is only performed on article manuscripts with fully paid (not discounted or waived) APC fees.
APC Subsidizing and Funding
To assist researchers in covering the costs of the APC in OA publishing, there are various sources of OA funding.
Additionally, unlike many other publishers, IGI Global offers flexible subsidies, 100% Open Access APC funding, discounts, and more.
