Abstract

The attack and defense model of network security based on game theory has developed into an effective network security model. It is a hot topic in the field of network and information security to use the idea of game theory to attack and defend the network security. This paper analyzes the general model of game theory in the field of security. This paper also analyzes the general model of network security attack and defense game. This paper also analyzes the game theory model of cryptographic protocol. This paper studies the existing network security methods based on game theory, reviews the development and evolution process and technical core of network security based on game theory, and compares the specificity of network security models based on game theory. Finally, the paper discusses the problems in the field of network security based on game theory, and tries to forecast its future development trend.
