Unique attributes

Information Management & Computer Security contributes to the advance of knowledge directly related to the theory and practice of the management and security of information and information systems. It publishes methodological developments, empirical studies and practical applications. Emphasis is placed on systematic studies that contribute to the general understanding of the power and usefulness of information and hence contribute to more effective management. A double-blind review process ensures the content's validity and relevance.

Topicality

Because computers are now regarded as such an everyday facet of business life, they tend to be regarded as useful furniture, rather than dynamic technological aids. For this reason, their full potential is often not efficiently exploited. This journal examines the two closely related fields of data management and its security, providing insights and describing methodologies that computer users can adapt to their own systems to improve input, storage, use and protection of valuable data.

Key benefits

Subscribers are kept abreast of new systems developments, theoretical and practical knowledge, and the design, creation, development, implementation and evaluation of information systems. Protecting data from unsolicited use, an increasingly important aspect of data management as companies commission research in areas such as new products, is also given thorough coverage. News on applications, including medical and legal issues, is included in this international and interdisciplinary journal, already regarded as a leader in its field.
