Abstract :
Cyber threats and the field of computer cyber defense are gaining more and more an increased importance in our lives. Starting from our regular personal computers and ending with thin clients such as netbooks or smartphones we find ourselves bombarded with constant malware attacks. In this paper we will present a new and novel way in which we can detect these kinds of attacks by using elements of modern game theory. We will present the effects and benefits of game theory and we will talk about a defence exercise model that can be used to train cyber response specialists.
