This book combines game theory and complex networks to examine intentional technological risk
through modeling. As information security risks are in constant evolution the methodologies
and tools to manage them must evolve to an ever-changing environment. A formal global
methodology is explained in this book which is able to analyze risks in cyber security based
on complex network models and ideas extracted from the Nash equilibrium. A risk management
methodology for IT critical infrastructures is introduced which provides guidance and analysis
on decision making models and real situations. This model manages the risk of succumbing to a
digital attack and assesses an attack from the following three variables: income obtained
expense needed to carry out an attack and the potential consequences for an attack. Graduate
students and researchers interested in cyber security complex network applications and
intentional risk will find this book useful as it is filled with a number of models
methodologies and innovative examples.
