Study on Risk Assessment of Network Security Based on Game Theory

Abstract:

to strengthen the network security and to enhance the accuracy of the network security risk assessment, the essay conducts game analysis to the security system of protective mechanisms. Using the basic theory of games and the analytical and comparative method, and raising the network security and physical model for the security system, this process will protect and improve the network security. At the aspect of setting the model, we did not rely on the traditional game theory, but creatively set behavior of the game for a large number of players for the limit logos of groups in the model, and paid more attention to the detection system to reach a state of stability. Analysis shows that the proposed models and the method are feasible and effective.
