Continuous Quantitative Risk Management in Smart Grids Using Attack Defense Trees [PDF]
Although the risk assessment discipline has been studied from long ago as a means to support security investment decision-making, no holistic approach exists to continuously and quantitatively analyze cyber risks in scenarios where attacks and defenses ...

Climate indirectly modulates tree survival of spruce beetle attacks via effects on constitutive and induced secondary metabolites [PDF]
Despite many years of research, it remains challenging to determine why some trees survive bark beetle attacks while others do not. Current theory suggests that survival is predicated by interactions between tree defense systems and climatic drivers, but

Foundations of Attack–Defense Trees [PDF]
We introduce and give formal definitions of attack-defense trees. We argue that these trees are a simple, yet powerful tool to analyze complex security and privacy problems. Our formalization is generic in the sense that it supports different semantical approaches. We present several semantics for attack-defense trees along with usage scenarios, and we

A Stochastic Framework for Quantitative Analysis of Attack-Defense Trees [PDF]
Cyber attacks are becoming increasingly complex, practically sophisticated and organized. Losses due to such attacks are important, varying from the loss of money to business reputation spoilage. Therefore, there is a great need for potential victims of cyber attacks to deploy security solutions that allow the identification and/or prediction of ...

Using Attack-Defense Trees to Analyze Threats and Countermeasures in an ATM: A Case Study [PDF]
Securing automated teller machines (ATMs), as critical and complex infrastructure, requires a precise understanding of the associated threats. This paper reports on the application of attack-defense trees to model and analyze the security of ATMs.We capture the most dangerous multi-stage attack scenarios applicable to ATM structures, and establish a ...

Attack-Defense Trees with Offensive and Defensive Attributes
Effective risk management in cybersecurity requires a thorough understanding of the interplay between attacker capabilities and defense strategies. Attack-Defense Trees (ADTs) are a commonly used methodology for representing this interplay; however, previous work in this domain has only focused on analyzing metrics such as cost, damage, or time from ...

Stochastic-based Semantics Of Attack-Defense Trees For Security Assessment
Abstract Losses caused by cyber-attacks are considerably increasing each year. The need for an optimal security assessment methodology that combines mathematical foundations with practical and user-friendly representations has become imperatively crucial.

Evaluating the understandability and user acceptance of Attack-Defense Trees: Original experiment and replication [PDF]
Context: Attack-Defense Trees (ADTs) are a graphical notation used to model and evaluate security requirements. ADTs are popular because they facilitate communication among different stakeholders involved in system security evaluation and are formal enough to be verified using methods like model checking.

The problem of induced immunity in conifers [PDF]
During the field experiments on artificial inoculation, the mycelium of Grosmannia aoshimae (Ohtaka et Masuya) Masuya et Yamaoka fungus was observed to spread slowly in the conductive tissues of Siberian fir (Abies sibirica Ledeb.) trees that retained ...
