REVIEW ON USE OF DECISION SUPPORT SYSTEMS IN CYBER RISK MANAGEMENT FOR CRITICAL INFRASTRUCTURES

Abstract

This paper uses the systematic literature review methodology to identify, analyze and evaluate the state of the art on the use of decision support systems for cyber risk management in critical infrastructures. This type of activity allows us to make a reliable and unbiased analysis of existing research and identify areas that need further exploration. Existing knowledge and studies on this topic are critically analyzed in order to better position future research actions in this field. Identifying, assessing, and managing the cyber risks of information technology components in critical infrastructure has a major impact on the overall security and safety of the entity. The amount of data that is required to be processed and analyzed is often beyond the capacity of the operator or decision makers. The aim is to explore the extent to which the decision support system is currently used to overcome this limitation in cyber risk management, to present rapid and informed responses to the identified risks.
