Chapter Chapter 8 in Cyberdefense, 2023, pp 123-134 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract The growing need for cyberdefense capabilities and the lack of specialists leave many organizations vulnerable to attacks. This chapter offers a comprehensive analysis of the cyberdefense capabilities of Swiss organizations active in cyberdefense. We also study the extent to which they exchange capabilities, and we produce a map of their informal networks. We find that the ecosystem as a whole is a scale-free network that hosts many capabilities, but they are distributed unevenly across organizations. Further, cooperation between these organizations is limited although opportunities to cooperate exist.
