Data confidence 85 high
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

The paper proposes an approach that allows countering attacks on cryptocurrency exchanges and their clients. This approach is formalized in the form of a synthesis of a dynamic model of resistance to phishing attacks and a perceptron model in the form of the simplest artificial neural network. The dynamics of the confrontation are determined by a system of differential equations that determines the change in the states of the victim of phishing attacks and the attacker who organizes such attacks. This allows to find optimal strategies for opposing parties within the scheme of a bilinear differential game with complete information. The solution of the game allows you to determine payment matrices, which are elements of the training set for artificial neural networks. The synthesis of such models will make it possible to find a strategy to resist phishing with a sufficient degree of accuracy. This will minimize the losses of the victim of phishing attacks and of the protection side, which provides a secure system of communication with clients of the cryptocurrency exchange. The proposed neuro-game approach makes it possible to effectively forecast the process of countering phishing in the context of costs for parties using different strategies.
