Towards A Theory Of Insider Threat AssessmentAuthors: Ramkumar Chinchani, Anusha Iyer Hung Q Ngo, Shambhu UpadhyayaInternational Conference on Dependable Systems and Networks2005 (DSN 2005), pp. 108 - 117, 2005 Present by : Zhongxia Ma Department of Computer Science University of Auckland
Summary • Gives readers some background information about insider threat • Introduces the authors’ model(key challenge graph) • Uses key challenge graph to simulate the insider threat • Analyses the possible insider attack strategies • Compares and contrasts the key challenge graph with other relevant models
Appreciative CommentPaper gives enough background information about insider threat • Explains what insider threats are, what damages the insider threats can cause, and why detect insider threats is hard. • Readers get a very clear idea of what the paper is going to talk about. • Readers also get some basic knowledge about insider threats. • The words like “FBI/CSI” also attract readers’ attention.
Appreciative CommentThe key challenge graph model is good • Easy to understand, easy to remember • Widely used (simulate social engineering attacks) • Compare with other relevant models, the key challenge graph is batter for the insider threat problem key Key Middle vertex key Start vertex Target vertex Key challenge
Critical CommentMisleading terminology • Key (here means information on a vertex not the cryptographic key) • Key challenge, a authorization process. (key means an cryptographic key ) • The key to thekeychallenge key key challenge Key Middle vertex key Start vertex Target vertex
Question? • If a student plan to hack into Clark's computer to change his grade from a lab computer, do you think he can success? key Key Middle vertex key Start vertex Target vertex Key challenge
