Resumo


A evolução das tecnologias e a crescente dependência em dispositivos digitais aumentam os riscos cibernéticos e os ciberataques, tornando essencial para a compreensão dos riscos e de seus potenciais impactos a partir de uma perspectiva técnica e econômica. Neste contexto, este artigo propõe o SIM-Ciber, uma solução para simulação de riscos e impactos técnicos e financeiros em empresas. O SIM-Ciber se baseia em relatórios e estatísticas de cibersegurança de empresas reputadas (e.g., consultorias e provedores de serviços) e aplica técnicas de simulação (e.g., Monte Carlo e Teorema de Bayes) para compreender os riscos e impactos de ciberataques em empresas de diferentes tamanhos, regiões e setores. A viabilidade do SIM-Ciber é demonstrada para ataques de Malware, Phishing e DDoS em diferentes setores da indústria, mostrando alta precisão para determinar impactos financeiros com base em estatísticas reais.
