Proposal Number: 0428422Title: An Economic Approach to SecurityPI: Joan FeigenbaumAbstract Internet security is universally seen as an extremely important problem. Moreover, technical solutions developed over the last three decades represent deep and elegant intellectual contributions. Yet few of these solutions are in widespread use. Clearly something is amiss. It has recently been argued, by Anderson and others, that the missing linkis economics: Only through understanding the incentives inherent in various security proposals can one decide which, if any, would actually lead to greater security. This research project is a three-year, multi-institutional, multi-disciplinary investigation of the economics of security in networked environments. Specific research topics include security of interdomain routing, adoptability of trusted platforms, and markets for private information. The intellectual merit and broader impact of the project are intertwined, both based on the potential not only to solve technical problems but also to develop general analytical techniques for evaluating candidate solutions to real security problems in a manner that gives adoption incentives their just due. If successful, it will lead to greater actual security, rather than simply to more available security technology. Educational activity that integrates security, networking, and economics is also a major goal one on which the investigators have experience on both graduate and undergraduate levels.

提案编号：0428422标题：安全的经济方法PI：琼·费根鲍姆抽象互联网安全被普遍视为一个极其重要的问题。此外，在过去30年中开发的技术解决方案代表了深刻而优雅的智力贡献。然而，这些解决方案中很少有得到广泛使用的。显然，有些地方出了问题。安德森和其他人最近认为，缺失的环节是经济：只有通过理解各种安全提案固有的激励措施，才能决定哪些方案(如果有的话)实际上会带来更大的安全性。这项研究项目是一项为期三年的、多机构、多学科的网络环境下安全经济学的调查。具体的研究主题包括域间路由的安全性、可信平台的可采用率以及私人信息的市场。该项目的智力优势和更广泛的影响相互交织在一起，不仅基于解决技术问题的潜力，而且基于开发一般分析技术，以使采用激励措施得到应有的激励的方式，评估实际安全问题的候选解决方案。如果成功，它将带来更大的实际安全性，而不仅仅是更可用的安全技术。整合安全、网络和经济的教育活动也是一个主要目标，研究人员在研究生和本科生水平上都有经验。
