A Novel Attack-and-Defense Signaling Game for Optimal Deceptive Defense Strategy Choice

Figure 5

Game scenario with deception, which considers two decision makers, namely, a defender and an attacker. The defender deploys a honeypot in the IoT network as either a system or a service host. In the specified scenario, the forward and reverse transmissions occur simultaneously. The sequences of moves, type sets, and action sets follow the modeling elements that were discussed in the previous section. The incomplete information comes from the attacker’s uncertainty regarding the type of the system.
