Outline of Final Research Achievements

For the purpose of objective and reproducible evaluation regarding cyber security, this project established basic social scientific models and data infrastructure models. The models are based mainly on security investment theories and mechanism design theories. Their applications in actual cybersecurity activities and implementations supported their effectiveness; successful empirical studies include case studies in data sharing for anti-malware researches, hypothesis testing regarding security investment into virtual currencies, and systematic evaluation of anonymous communication systems.
