Cyberbiosecurity
Quarterly
Shaping the future foundation for cyberbiosecurity, this esteemed group curates and advances cutting-edge research at the intersection of cybersecurity and biotechnology. This work ensures the publication of impactful, peer-reviewed studies at the boundaries of science and security, and heads editorial choice for the Cyberbiosecurity Quarterly.
About this Work
Partnering with Kansas State University under the leadership of Dr. David Molik, BIO-ISAC announces the first-of-its-kind Cyberbiosecurity Quarterly, a peer-reviewed, open access, online journal hosted by New Prairie Press.
Call for Papers
We are pleased to announce the launch of Cyberbiosecurity Quarterly, a new academic and trade journal dedicated to the intersection of cybersecurity and the bioeconomy. Published by Kansas State University's New Prairie Press and sponsored by the Bioeconomy Information Sharing and Analysis Center (BIO-ISAC), this quarterly journal will serve as an important resource for professionals, researchers, and policymakers working to safeguard digital and physical biological infrastructures.
Scope and Focus
Cyberbiosecurity is an emerging discipline that addresses the protection of biomanufacturing, biomedical research, synthetic biology, digital agriculture, and other life sciences sectors from digital threats. This journal will explore topics at the nexus of cybersecurity, digital biosecurity, and the bioeconomy, including but not limited to:
-
Best practices for network configuration and management in biomedical environments (ingress/egress protection, segmentation, isolation, access control, traffic protection, etc.)
-
Cybersecurity Vendor Management and Assessment
-
Cyber and Digital Biosecurity Education for the Bioeconomy’s Workforce
-
The Quality-Cybersecurity Tension in Practice and Techniques for Mitigation
-
Threat Intelligence for Cyber-Physical Biological Systems
-
Regulatory and Policy Perspectives on Cyberbiosecurity
-
Incident Response and Risk Mitigation in Biomanufacturing
-
AI and Machine Learning in Digital and Cyber Biosecurity
