This document calls for chapter proposals for a new handbook on threats and countermeasures related to digital crime and cyber terrorism. The handbook aims to explore various aspects of these topics through comprehensive reviews of vulnerabilities and mitigations. Suggested topics include network/mobile security, virtual worlds for terrorism training, attacking healthcare devices/automobiles, cyber terrorism/crime, software assurance, exploiting code vulnerabilities, and predicting future cyber crime. Researchers are invited to submit 2-3 page chapter proposals by February 15th outlining their proposed chapter's mission and concerns for consideration. Accepted authors will receive chapter guidelines and be expected to submit full chapters by June 15th. The handbook is scheduled for publication in early 2015 by IGI Global.
