Application of minmax theory to cybersecurity modeling
Abstract
Cybersecurity is a critical area where adversaries continuously attempt to exploit system vulnerabilities, while defenders aim to minimize risk and damage. This paper explores how MinMax theory, a fundamental concept in game theory, can be applied to model cybersecurity problems. We present a mathematical formulation and an example illustrating the effectiveness of MinMax strategies in cybersecurity defense.
