Title: Modelling cybersecurity games with compositional game theory

Abstract: Compositional game theory and its corresponding Haskell DSL open-games-engine, have been used for modelling microeconomic games, auctions, and smart contracts. Some advantages of this compositional approach are leveraging modularity and code-reuse to construct larger games. Incidentally, game theory has been used to model complex attack-defense scenarios in cybersecurity, with the simplest case modelling the strategic interaction between a single attacker and defender. Scaling these models to accurately reflect real-world attacks and extrapolate data to improve the performance of systems remains an active area of research. In this talk I'll present a honeypot allocation game and design choices that allow a modeller to easily extend the construction to represent defensive strategies such as deception.
