Towards a Temporal Response Taxonomy
01 January 2013
Response systems play a crucial role in modern security architectures. In order to select the most appropriate countermeasure, they adopt a dynamic with situation-aware approach. However, today's response systems are limited to the selection of a countermeasure. In other words, the follow-up and the deactivation phases are still performed manually. Consequently, existing response taxonomies failed to provide an appropriate set of requirements that covers the deactivation feature. In this paper, we tackle this issue by proposing a formal temporal taxonomy for response measures. Our work provides a first step towards the deactivation and the transactional management of response measures.
