Instructions to Authors
Submissions
Authors should submit their article to either of the Editors by email in Word format. In extreme circumstances we will accept paper submissions, but this may considerably delay the review of the paper. Authors should submit four copies of their article (and retain a copy for themselves). In order that these may be reviewed anonymously they are asked to ensure that two copies include the title but do not identify the author(s). The four copies of the typescript should be sent to the Editors:

The editors are happy to respond informally to suggestions for articles.
Open Access & Self Archiving
Authors of accepted papers can opt to pay an Article Processing Charge of £1600 / $2600 (+VAT where applicable) for their articles to be made Open Access online immediately upon publication. By paying this charge authors are also permitted to post the final, published PDF of their article on a website, institutional repository or other free public server, immediately on publication.
Please see our FAQs for further details or download our license to publish form.
Palgrave Macmillan's publishing policies ensure that authors can fully comply with the public access requirements of many major funding bodies worldwide - please visit www.sherpa.ac.uk for more information. However, it is the author's responsibility to take the necessary actions to achieve compliance. These may include self archiving, opting into Palgrave Macmillan's manuscript deposition service and/or choosing Open Access publication.
Authors of accepted articles are encouraged to submit the author's version of the accepted paper (the unedited manuscript) to their funding body's archive, for public release 18 months after publication of the final article in a full paginated journal issue. In addition, authors are encouraged to archive this version of the manuscript in their institution's repositories and on their personal websites, also 18 months after the original publication. This is in line with Palgrave Macmillan's self-archiving policy.

Ethics Policy
This journal is a member of the Committee on Publication Ethics. We expect all prospective authors to read and understand our Ethics Policy before submitting any manuscript to this journal. This policy details the responsibilities of all authors, editors and reviewers working with and for Palgrave Macmillan Journals as well as our own ethical responsibilities. This includes, but is not limited to, plagiarism, falsification of data, misuse of third party material, fabrication of results and fraudulent authorship. Please note that submitted manuscripts may be subject to checks using the iThenticate service, in conjunction with CrossCheck, in order to detect instances of overlapping and similar text. The iThenticate software checks submissions against millions of published research papers, documents on the web, and other relevant sources. If plagiarism or misconduct is found, consequences are detailed in the policy.
Preparation of manuscripts
The Security Journal publishes research-based papers and case studies, as well as papers aimed at developing theory and good practice (5000-7000 words). Authors are asked: to review literature only in so far as it supports the argument being discussed; to avoid, where possible, specialist terminology; and to consider as far as possible the practical implications of the work described. Articles should not have been published, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere. They should be word-processed in English, double-spaced throughout, allowing at least three centimetres on all sides of the text, on one side of A4 white paper, with the pages numbered consecutively.
An abstract of 100-150 words, should accompany the manuscript. After the abstract five 'key words' should be included. The current position and affiliation of the author or authors should be included on the title page.
Keep textual notes to a minimum, indicate them with superscript numbers, and provide the note text as a list at the end of the article before the references. Please do not use footnotes.
References
References in the text
The whole citation should follow the Harvard style, enclosed within parentheses (author surname, year) if not a natural part of the surrounding sentence; the year should be enclosed within parentheses if the names do form a natural part of the surrounding sentence. Citations of works by two authors should have ‘and’ (not an ampersand) between the names. Citations of works by three or more authors should have the first author followed by et al in italics with no trailing stop.
Publications by the same author(s) in the same year should be identified with a, b, c (e.g. 2008a, 2008b) closed up to the year.
Personal communications should be listed as such where they are cited in the text, and not listed in the references.
Example:
Since Paterson (1983) has shown that… This is in results attained later (Kramer, 1984). Results have been reported (Don Graham, 1989, personal communication).
Articles not yet published should show ‘forthcoming’ in place of the year (in both the reference and the citation). ‘In press’ should be used in place of the volume, issue and page range details.
Example:
Sharp Parker, A.M. (forthcoming) Cyberterrorism: An examination of the preparedness of the North Carolina local law enforcement. Security Journal, in press.
