Game-Theoretic Neyman-Pearson Detection to Combat Strategic Evasion. (arXiv:2206.05276v1 [cs.CR] CROSS LISTED)

The security in networked systems depends greatly on recognizing and
identifying adversarial behaviors. Traditional detection methods focus on
specific categories of attacks and have become inadequate for increasingly
stealthy and deceptive attacks that are designed to bypass detection
strategically. This work aims to develop a holistic theory to countermeasure
such evasive attacks. We focus on extending a fundamental class of
statistical-based detection methods based on Neyman-Pearson's (NP) hypothesis
testing formulation. We propose game-theoretic frameworks to capture the
conflicting relationship between …
