Peer Reviewed Journal via three different mandatory reviewing processes, since 2006, and, from September 2020, a fourth mandatory peer-editing has been added.
During the last decade the techniques and tools of cyber attacks
have become more sophisticated, the distinctions between
actors and threats have become blurred and attack prospects
more worrying. The informational threat can hit any type of
civilian or military controls, fixed or mobile infrastructures,
putting them down or greatly reducing their service capabilities
with direct and indirect physical / economic impacts from
tactical or local scale to strategic / national and international
level. It has been shown that broad spectrum protection
investments and particularly poorly prioritized ones are not
efficient as oftentimes they are limited in scope by other
operational requirements. So it is simply not possible to protect
each property from each threat. The cyberdefense must be
rooted on intelligence based on prioritized Risk Management
and not on standardized audits and practice of indolent
regulations, written a priori, or the biased advice of fear monger
solutions sellers. RM offers ultimately support for operational
decisions and protection (mitigation), provided that we want to
define the level of acceptable risk reduction /mitigation and that
we formulate measurable performance targets to achieve .
