	title = {Towards a Game-theoretic Framework for Intelligent Cyber-security Alert Allocation },
	year = {2017},
	abstract = {In recent years, there have been a number of successful cyber attacks
on enterprise networks by malicious actors. These attacks generate alerts which
must be investigated by cyber analysts to determine if they are an attack. Unfortunately, there are magnitude more alerts than cyber analysts - a trend expected
to continue into the future creating a need to find optimal assignments of the
incoming alerts to analysts in the presence of a strategic adversary. We address
this challenge with the four following contributions: (1) a cyber allocation game
(CAG) model for the cyber network protection domain, (2) an NP-hardness proof
for computing the optimal strategy for the defender, (3) techniques to find the
optimal allocation of experts to alerts in CAG in the general case and key special
cases, and (4) heuristics to achieve significant scale-up in CAGs with minimal
loss in solution quality.},
