Abstract :
In previous simulation studies, attackers were assumed to respond to changes in reward with an S shaped curve and to changes in security with a declining S shaped curve. This paper reports experimental work that investigates the validity of those assumptions. In general, the results suggest that the assumptions are reasonable.
