Volume 25, Issue 2 Editorial

Spring 2026
2026 marks the 25th year of the Journal of Information Warfare (JIW) and we are excited for what we have done over the last quarter century as well as how vibrant and relevant this academic publication is today. In addition to our outstanding double-blind peer-reviewed papers that we publish on a regular basis, our staff, also in conjunction with outstanding academics, produce special editions focused on key topics, organizations, and theories.
Our plan moving forward for the next two and a half decades is to continue to publish cutting edge academic papers, as well as to focus on new areas of cybersecurity and information warfare, to include Artificial Intelligence, maritime threats, facility-related control systems, and others. We hope that you continue to enjoy the eclectic nature of our selections, as well our focus on these subjects moving forward.
