Cyber Defense Matrix reposted this
Einstein's most advanced breakthroughs came from his ability to make conceptual linkages among different mental models. 🤯 To put it another way, real breakthroughs emerge when you combine mental models. 🤯 In my career, I've found decent success in predicting small parts of the future and understanding our current state by identifying patterns, such as the Cyber Defense Matrix and the DIE Triad, which are really just the combination of various mental models. I have recently made a few more conceptual breakthroughs through the combination of other mental models. To the degree that I can, I'll post a blog about once a week to share some of these breakthroughs. In particular, I plan to share HOW I discover these patterns because I think there's many more deep linkages among mental models to be discovered and I would like your help. If you want to hear more, follow Knostic for my latest (and past) ruminations. https://lnkd.in/erUVS-fT #mentalmodels #cyberdefensematrix #iykyk

Very interesting. Look forward to reading how you will balance complexity, redundancy and challenges of integration of different models. 화이팅!

Good stuff Sounil Yu! Human mental models for cybersecurity is one of the reasons I got so interested in knowledge-driven AI created with OWL/RDF. OWL (Web Ontology Language) and RDF (Resource Description Framework) allow for the formal representation of knowledge structures and the complex interrelationships between different concepts. This is crucial for encoding human mental models, which often involve intricate relationships and rules that define how elements interact with each other. By using these tools, human mental models can be encoded in a way that machines can not only read but also semantically interpret. This goes beyond simple data processing; it involves understanding the logical underpinnings and constraints that govern the models. For instance, if a cybersecurity model considers certain threat responses more viable under specific conditions, OWL/RDF can be used to define these conditional relationships. To integrate OWL/RDF-encoded mental models into a large language model (LLM), the structured knowledge from OWL/RDF is used to enhance the LLM's training or query processing, enabling it to understand and respond to queries with greater accuracy and depth, much like referencing an expert's mental model.

Reading the teaser, I was thinking about Transfer Learning, a machine learning technique where knowledge gained from one model (source model) is applied to a different but related task (target task)... Anything in that direction? Well, I will simply stay tuned :-)
Currently following Knostic from your behalf Sounil. Thanks for sharing. Embracing design patterns holds key to the ease of adoption for cybersecurity concepts. Always in the lookout for new emerging cybersecurity methodologies that will aid towards simplification such in the case of the DIE Security model. 👍

What was more extraordinary, however, was Einstein’s ability to construct thought experiments on his theories. Haven’t seen anything like that in infosec yet. Or maybe I have and just didn’t understand it.

Can’t agree more! Thank you for putting it in writing… and you know why!
