Abstract:

Making sound security decisions when designing, operating, and maintaining a complex system, such as the power grid cyber infrastructure, is a challenging task.  Analysts need to be able to understand and predict how different factors affect the overall system security. To provide insight on system security and aid decision-makers, we propose the ADversary VIew Security Evaluation (ADVISE) method to quantitatively evaluate the strength of a system's ...

Abstract:

Over the past decade, the cyber threat landscape has become increasingly complex, diverse and dynamic.   While adherence to best practices provides a measure of security, significant innovation is required to address the increasingly potent threats.  Despite the compelling need, the challenges in identifying potentially high impact innovations and bridging the gap between research and broad deployment remain significant.  In this talk, I will describe the ...
