Partially-Observable Security Games for Automating Attack-Defense Analysis. (arXiv:2211.01508v1 [cs.CR])

Network systems often contain vulnerabilities that remain unfixed in a
network for various reasons, such as the lack of a patch or knowledge to fix
them. With the presence of such residual vulnerabilities, the network
administrator should properly react to the malicious activities or proactively
prevent them, by applying suitable countermeasures that minimize the likelihood
of an attack by the attacker. In this paper, we propose a stochastic
game-theoretic approach for analyzing network security and synthesizing defense
strategies to protect …
