Cyber space is virtually without limits. Open to everyone, connecting people around the globe, it offers unprecedented opportunities to transform entire economies. But it has also made open societies extremely vulnerable. Spectacular intrusions and all forms of cyber-attacks make weekly headlines in media across the world. Cyber-crime is a booming business, grossing approximately half a trillion U.S. dollars every year. Cybersecurity has become a major concern, not only for business, but for governments as well, which have to provide security for their countries and protect the rights of their citizens. Through a combination of monitoring, detecting, and responding to possible cyber threats, systems can be effectively installed to both mitigate damage and quantify value-at-risk. While there is no single or simple answer to the question of cyber security, the use of new modeling approaches and predictive statistics helps to reduce vulnerabilities at every level. As increasing numbers of organizations adopt and deploy preemptive security measures, the amount of new data that fuels the research required to keep pace with these threats increases. When government and industry cooperate in new ways to assess threats and take cooperative action, the risk profile for organizations decreases.
