Paper Abstract:
|
A graphical representation of a system can improve the understanding of the designer of a system and mitigate risks of
attack to designed systems. Such a graphical representation can assist in documenting security risks and identifying
possible paths attackers may consider to attack a system for their undesirable goal. An attack graphs documents the risks
known at the time the system is designed. However an attack graph does not provide facilities to perform concrete risk
analysis such as what-if and scenarios analysis to test the designed system for possible risk of attacks. In this article, a
fuzzy cognitive map (FCM) is used with graph attacks to provide facilities that will enable the system architects to
perform what-if analysis to better understand vulnerabilities of their designed system. |
