Evolutionary dynamics of the interdependent security games on complex network

作者:

Highlights:

• We use evolutionary game dynamics to explore the evolution process of three interdependent security games: total effort, weakest link and best shot.

• We use the Monte Carlo method to simulate the specific strategy selection between individuals.

• We carry out simulation experiments in three networks: Lattice networks, Erdos- Renyi (ER) random networks and Barabási-Albert (BA) scale-free networks.

• We study the influence of cluster effects in different networks on the evolution of the three IDS models.

• We provide suggestions and guidance for companies under specific security scenarios in making security investment choices.
