attacker moves, the defense strategy is designed
preemptively for each step of the attack. This
helps us to analyze all the possible skill sets of
players at a fine-grain level. At each step of the
tree, all the possible options of attacker are scrutinized by exploring all the alternative logical conditions. The value of RPN is computed for assessing
the risk associated with respect to three parameters, i.e., severity, occurrence, and detection.
