Information communications technology systems are facing an increasing number of cyber
security threats, the majority of which are originated by insiders. As insiders reside behind …

Perceiving and understanding cyber-attacks can be a difficult task, and more effective
techniques are needed to aid cyber-attack perception. Attack modelling techniques (AMTs) …

This paper presents the current state of the art on attack and defense modeling approaches
that are based on directed acyclic graphs (DAGs). DAGs allow for a hierarchical …

To determine the security impact software vulnerabilities have on a particular network, one
must consider interactions among multiple network elements. For a vulnerability analysis …

Attack graphs are important tools for analyzing security vulnerabilities in enterprise
networks. Previous work on attack graphs has not provided an account of the scalability of …

Attack graphs are a valuable tool to network defenders, illustrating paths an attacker can use
to gain access to a targeted network. Defenders can then focus their efforts on patching the …

The fundamental role of the software defined networks (SDNs) is to decouple the data plane
from the control plane, thus providing a logically centralized visibility of the entire network to …

Capturing the uncertain aspects in cyber security is important for security analysis in
enterprise networks. However, there has been insufficient effort in studying what modeling …

Abstract Internet of Things (IoT) increase the interconnectivity and interoperability of systems
in various critical sectors, such as industrial control, healthcare and smart transportation …

Advanced communications and data processing technologies bring great benefits to the
smart grid. However, cyber-security threats also extend from the information system to the …
