A Systematic Research and Simulation of the Internet Security Governance

The Internet security governance is a complex engineering covering multiple disciplines such as technology, economics, law and sociology. Although security issues have been studied in these fields respectively, there is still lack of a mechanism to integrate those achievements together. To conquer this problem, a systematic model for the Internet security governance is introduced in this paper based on the complexity theory and spreading dynamics. The model points out that the Internet security governance is an iterative and continuously improving process including four different stages. The simulation of the model is also discussed through analyzing the governance issue of harmful information on WWW.
