Visualizing Cybersecurity Events
Published: 01/2013
Abstract:
The old adage “a picture is worth a 1,000 words” is relevant to cybersecurity because professionals must deal with large amounts of data in a very short period. It is also relevant to cybersecurity educators who must convey the complexity of cybersecurity events to students and to members of the general public who might have little or no background in cybersecurity. Fortunately, there are many fine tools now available for visualization and there will be more such tools in the future. This paper discusses some of the tools that are available and highlights some work that deserves to be better known by cybersecurity educators.
