Volume 24, Issue 4 Editorial

Fall 2025
With this latest edition of the JIW, we are closing out 24 years of publishing outstanding information warfare and cybersecurity double-blind peer-reviewed papers. We are excited in 2026 to be celebrating a quarter of a century of excellence as an academic journal.
Moving forward, we are looking to continue to provide a venue where scholars and practitioners can be published in a rapid fashion. We are also excited about our two-decade relationship with the International Conference on Cyber Warfare and Security (ICCWS) which started in 2006 and is going strong. So, thanks to all our current and former authors and reviewers for your support so far and we plan on moving forward to continue to publish outstanding papers in this journal.
Finally, I want to thank Dr. Bill Hutchinson, who started this effort in 2001, for having faith to allow me to take over this effort in 2013, as the Chief Editor, and he remains an essential part of our team today. We look forward to continuing this excellence moving forward.
We hope you enjoy this most recent edition of the journal. If you are interested in submitting new papers or subscribing, please contact me at leigh@armisteadtec.com or jiw@armisteadtec.com.
Cheers!
