Author Guidelines

International Journal of Advanced Research in Cyber Security (IJARC) welcomes submissions of high-quality, original research manuscripts aligned with its focus areas. Each submission undergoes an initial review by the editorial team to ensure it adheres to the journal’s aims and scope. Manuscripts meeting these criteria are sent for a rigorous peer-review process to maintain the highest academic standards.

Authors are required to obtain necessary permissions for all materials used in their manuscripts, including images, datasets, and any copyrighted content. Additionally, all co-authors must consent to their inclusion in the manuscript, and research involving human or animal subjects must have received prior ethical approval from an accredited committee.

Submissions that fail to meet the journal’s basic quality standards during the initial desk review may be rejected. To avoid this, authors should ensure their manuscripts are well-structured, arguments are logically presented, and findings are clearly articulated. Titles should be concise and descriptive, and abstracts should provide a standalone summary to engage potential reviewers.
