Data sharing policy

The scientific collection "Information Technology and Security" implements the Open Science Policy of Igor Sikorsky Kyiv Polytechnic Institute , which formalizes the principles of free access to scientific results and data. The data dissemination policy is based on the principles of the Budapest Open Access Initiative, the Open Citation Initiative ( I4OC ), the Open Abstracts Initiative ( I4OA ), and the Barcelona Declaration on Open Research Information .

The journal encourages authors to disseminate published content, supporting the principles of the free flow of scientific information and the global exchange of knowledge for the common good. We encourage (but do not require) authors to share data and other artifacts that support the results in the article by archiving them in an appropriate public repository, where this does not violate the protection of human subjects or other legitimate concerns about the confidentiality of research subjects.

All datasets should be properly cited. This applies regardless of whether the data is data that the researcher(s) collected themselves or data from someone else. The journal supports the Force 11 Joint Statement of Citation Principles , which recognizes data as important cited research products.

Before making any decisions about sharing their data, researchers should check whether their sponsors require grantees to share data generated from their research. If researchers decide to share their data, the data should be freely available under a license of the researcher's choice that allows reuse by any third party for any lawful purpose.

We recommend that authors choose a data repository that issues a permanent identifier, preferably a Digital Object Identifier (DOI), and has a robust preservation plan to ensure the continued preservation of the data. Once the researcher(s) have made the decision to share their data in a repository, the author(s) should provide a data availability statement (the dataset should be listed in the Materials and Methods section), explaining where and under what conditions the data can be accessed. If the data is available and linked to, authors will be required to provide a link to the data in their reference list.

If consent to share data has not been obtained or if research participants have withdrawn their consent, data should not be disclosed unless they can be anonymized. If the researcher(s) are not the owner of the data, it is preferable for the owner of the data to make it available for reference by other researchers. Data should not be published without the written permission of the owner.

If the data is commercially confidential or protected by competition laws or market regulation, if the researcher's data was obtained while working for or in partnership with a commercial organization, he must obtain permission before sharing it.
