Abstract

Security specialists face complex situations where they need to make immediate decisions based on the analysis of large volumes of information, exceeding it their human capacity. Cognitive systems are proposed as an alternative to reduce this limitation, motivating us to investigate its use in the field of cybersecurity, known as cognitive security. Based on the review of the literature, we found different concepts of cognitive security with diverse approaches. Thus, our first contribution is to present a definition of cognitive security emphasizing the use of cognition for making decisions in real time and including the term self-awareness. Additionally, we investigated how to generate cognition in digital environments, including self-awareness adapted to computer systems. We propose self-awareness as an enabler to implement cognitive security, for which a second contribution in this paper is to generate the state of self-awareness from the cybersecurity approach using the contributions of autonomous computing, and establishing the technical and non-technical solutions for its implementation.

自我意识是认知安全的推动者

安全专家面临着复杂的情况，他们需要根据对大量信息的分析立即做出决定，这超出了他们的人力能力。认知系统被提出作为减少这种限制的替代方案，激励我们研究其在网络安全领域的应用，即认知安全。在回顾文献的基础上，我们发现认知安全的不同概念和不同的研究方法。因此，我们的第一个贡献是提出认知安全的定义，强调在实时决策中使用认知，并包括术语自我意识。此外，我们还研究了如何在数字环境中产生认知，包括适应计算机系统的自我意识。我们提出自我意识作为实现认知安全的推动者，本文的第二个贡献是利用自主计算的贡献从网络安全方法中生成自我意识状态，并为其实现建立技术和非技术解决方案。
