Call for Papers: JCEDM Special Issue on Cybersecurity Decision Making

The Journal of Cognitive Engineering and Decision Making welcomes submissions for a special issue on cybersecurity decision making. The security of computing systems and networks affects many aspects of life. Confidentiality, integrity, and availability of information systems impact people’s personal lives, work environments, critical infrastructure, government services, and military operations. Because information systems are interconnected, security decisions made on a personal workstation or workplace system can have direct or cascading effects elsewhere. This special issue of JCEDM will focus on the role of human decision making in cybersecurity: decision processes, approaches to measuring decision outcomes, and methods for improving the effectiveness of cybersecurity decisions. To date, work on cyber decision making has focused primarily on defensive technical staff, who monitor for abnormalities in computing systems and networks and decide how to prevent or respond to [...]
