Volume 6, Issue 3 Editorial

Stylized Image of the Word Editorial

DECEMBER 2007

Welcome to the last issue of 2007. Next year will be the seventh year of publication for JIW so any suggestions to improve the service to the readers will be gratefully received. We are always looking for quality papers so if you feel you want to contribute please send your work in. Most papers are of an academic nature and follow the rigorous process of peer review and need to stick to accepted practice. However, we also welcome papers with opinions on relevant topics from knowledgeable persons – these do not require such rigorous analysis by peers.

The papers in this issue start with Janicke and Finch who discuss the relationships between Network Enabled Capability, agility and security policy. Rowe then investigates the interesting possibilities of cyber-war crimes. Colwill and Jones continue with issues of security and outsourcing especially the human element in this scenario. Finally, Ryan gives his opinion on Islamic militants on the Internet.

Next year, as I will be on leave, Dr. Trish Williams has generously volunteered to edit the journal. Any paper submission for next year can either be sent to me for forwarding, or directly to Trish at trish.williams@ecu.edu.au
