Tutorials

Go to the Tutorial Guide for videos on how to search in databases including locating peer-reviewed articles.

General Databases

General Databases

Because cybersecurity is multidisciplinary, general databases are a great resource for journal articles. Most general databases allow you to limit by date, subject, and to peer-reviewed or scholarly articles:

Technology Databases

The ACM Digital Library is a research, discovery and networking platform containing:

  • The Full-Text Collection of all ACM publications, including journals, conference proceedings, technical magazines, newsletters and books.
  • A collection of curated and hosted full-text publications from select publishers.
  • The ACM Guide to Computing Literature, a comprehensive bibliographic database focused exclusively on the field of computing.
  • A richly interlinked set of connections among authors, works, institutions, and specialized communities.

There are also other databases in areas related to cyber security that can contain relevant articles:

Google Scholar

Google Scholar Search

Google Scholar provides a simple way to broadly search for scholarly literature. From one place, you can search across many disciplines and sources: articles, theses, books, abstracts and court opinions, from academic publishers, professional societies, online repositories, universities and other web sites. Google Scholar helps you find relevant work across the world of scholarly research.

Create a Google Scholar Alert and get email notifications of newly published papers that match your search criteria.
