  • Abstract
    Results from number theory show us that even in seemingly random sets, we can find order; total disorder is impossible. Ramsey´s theorem can help broaden our perspective in cybersecurity by showing us how to use the emergent order to find patterns and to design systems to avoid certain patterns.
