Description
In active development environments of web-based applications, back-end engineers and developers are constantly doing battle with bad actors probing for exploits. We explore the potential of non-cooperative game theory as a framework for enhancing back-end web development security and resource management. Most traditional strategies implemented by companies focus on static defense and reactive methods. By adopting a perspective influenced by game theory, we delve into the back and forth nature of the development timeline. We assume that the two exclusive contributors to the game in this framework are the development team and the bad actors. We finally explore whether or not the model being implemented should have characteristics aligned with flexibility or rigidity, and what influence their implementation environment has on the model’s final structure.
