Abstract-We present a method for developing executable algorithms for quantitative cyber-risk assessment. Exploiting techniques from security risk modeling and actuarial approaches, the method pragmatically combines use of available empirical data and expert judgments. The input to the algorithms are indicators providing information about the target of analysis, such as suspicious events observed in the network. Automated execution of the algorithms facilitates continuous assessment.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
