About the Journal

Aims & Scope

The Journal of Applied Cryptanalysis & System Integrity (JACSI) publishes original research at the intersection of cryptographic analysis and system-level security validation. JACSI operates as a Diamond Open Access overlay journal: no article processing charges, no subscription fees. All content is published under CC-BY-4.0.

Scope Areas

• Applied Cryptanalysis — Side-channel analysis, fault attacks, implementation vulnerabilities in deployed cryptographic systems
• Post-Quantum Cryptography — Security analysis of NIST PQC standards (ML-KEM, ML-DSA, HQC), migration strategies, hybrid schemes
• System Integrity Analysis — Binary verification, firmware integrity, supply chain security, code signing validation
• Digital Forensics — Evidence integrity verification, anti-tampering techniques, chain-of-custody validation
• Training Data Integrity — Dataset poisoning detection, model supply chain verification, benchmark manipulation
• Maritime Information Security — AIS spoofing detection, SCADA/ICS security in maritime systems, vessel tracking integrity

Article Types

• Research Articles (peer-reviewed)
• Bulletin entries (editorial-reviewed commentary and curated highlights)
