A comprehensive Model for Situational Awareness in Active Cyber Defense
Abstract:   (936 Views)
Nowadays complex cyber-attacks, have made serious threats for economic and national security in counties. Unfortunately, often hackers and computer malwares are one step ahead of security systems. Therefore, instead of waiting to deal with possible threats and attacks, the same as (former cyber defense methods), we need to look for a stronger and smarter solution to eliminate that potential threat. That’s where “active cyber defense” theory arises which situational awareness is an essential part of it. Over the past few years, Experts and researchers have always been looking for an active, effective and smart situational awareness to achieve an ideal defense against today's sophisticated attacks. With the advent of active cyber defense and the proof of its effectiveness and high deterrence in improving cyber defense, achieving an ideal model of situational awareness based on the concepts and approaches of this type of defense, is one of the main research topics in this issue.
In this paper, by presenting a proposed comprehensive model of cyber situational awareness with its subdivisions based on active cyber defense strategies and techniques, in comparison with existing models, a fundamental change will be made in improving cyber defense, especially in critical and sensitive infrastructures. Some of these strategies and techniques Are Such as hack-back strategy, counter zero-day attacks, shared situational awareness, and etc. Providing a new definition of the Defender power component and increasing its coefficients by using the advantages of the proposed model as well as reviewing the evaluation results based on game theory show that the proposed comprehensive model has better performance against attackers.
