  1. Game Theory for Security:Lessons Learned from Deployed Applications MilindTambe Chris Kiekintveld Richard John & teamcore.usc.edu

  2. Motivation: Infrastructure Security • Limited security resources: Selective checking • Adversary monitors defenses, exploits patterns 50 miles LAX

  3. Game Theory: Bayesian Stackelberg Games Security allocation: (i) Target weights; (ii) Opponent reaction Stackelberg: Security forces commit first Bayesian: Uncertain adversary types Optimal security allocation: Weighted random Strong Stackelberg Equilibrium (Bayesian) NP-hard Adversary Police

  4. Game Theory for Infrastructure Security: Outline • Deployed real world applications • Research challenges • Efficient algorithms: Scale-up to real-world problems • Human adversary: Bounded rationality & observations • Observability: Adversary surveillance uncertainty • Payoff uncertainty: .. • Evaluation • Algorithms: AAMAS(06,07,08,09); AAAI (08,10),...under review… • Algorithmic & experimental GT: AAMAS’09, AI Journal (2010), … • Observability: AAMAS’10,… • Applications: AAMAS Industry track (08,09), AI Magazine (09), Journal ITM (09), Interfaces (10), Informatica (10),…

  5. Deployed Applications: ARMOR & IRIS • IRIS: Randomized allocation of air marshals to flights (October 2009) • ARMOR: Randomized checkpoints & canine at LAX (August 2007)

  6. In Progress • TSA: Towards national deployment Spring’2011 • GUARDS: Currently evaluation, testing • Coast Guard: Pilot demonstration Boston, March 2011 • Los Angeles Sheriff’s Dept: Ticketless travelers… PROTECT Acronym GUARDS

  7. Outline of Presentation • Deployed real world applications • Research challenges • Efficient algorithms: Scale-up to real-world problems • Observability: Adversary surveillance uncertainty • Human adversary: Bounded rationality, observation power • Payoff uncertainty: Payoffs not point values; distributions • Evaluation

  8. Efficient Algorithms Challenges: Combinatorial explosions due to • Defender strategies: Allocations of resources to targets • E.g. 100 flights, 10 FAMS • Attacker strategies: Attack paths • E.g. Multiple attack paths to targets in a city • Adversary types: Adversary strategy combination

  9. SCALE-UP ARMOR ARMOR IRIS-I IRIS-II IRIS-III

  10. ARMOR: Multiple Adversary Types • NP-hard • Previous work: Linear programs using Harsanyi transformation P=0.3 P=0.5 P=0.2

  11. Multiple Adversary Types:Decomposition for Bayesian Stackelberg Games • Mixed-integer programs • No Harsanyi transformation • Significantly more efficient than previous approaches at the time

  12. SCALE-UP ARMOR ARMOR IRIS-I IRIS-II IRIS-III

  13. Federal Air Marshals Service International Flights from Chicago O’Hare Flights (each day) ~27,000 domestic flights ~2,000 international flights Estimated 3,000-4,000 air marshals Massive scheduling problem: How to assign marshals to flights?

  14. IRIS Scheduling Tool

  15. IRIS Scheduling Tool Flight Information Game Model Resources Risk Information Randomized Deployment Schedule Solution Algorithm

  16. IRIS: Large Numbers of Defender Strategies 784 x 512 FAMS: Joint Strategies 4 Flight tours 2 Air Marshals 6 Schedules 1.73 x 1013 Schedules: ARMOR out of memory 100 Flight tours 10 Air Marshals 100,000,000… x 1000…

  17. Addressing Scale-up in Defender Strategies • Security game:Payoffs depend on attacked target covered or not • Target independence • Avoid enumeration of all joint strategies: • Marginals: Probabilities for individual strategies/schedules • Sample required joint strategies: IRIS I and IRIS II • But: Sampling may be difficult if schedule conflicts • IRIS I (single target/flight), IRIS II (pairs of targets) • Branch & Price: Probabilities on joint strategies • Enumerates required joint strategies, handles conflicts • IRIS III (arbitrary schedules over targets)

  18. Explosion in Defender Strategies:Marginals for Compact Representation ARMOR: 10 tours, 3 air marshals Payoff duplicates: Depends on target covered • IRIS MILP similar to ARMOR • 10 instead of 120 variables • y1+y2+y3…+y10 = 3 • Construct samples over tour combos

  19. IRIS Speedups: Efficient Algorithms II ARMOR Actions ARMOR Runtime IRIS Runtime FAMS Ireland 6,048 4.74s 0.09s FAMS London 85,275 ---- 1.57s

  20. IRIS III • Next generation of IRIS • General scheduling constraints • Schedules can be any subset of targets • Resource can be constrained to any subset of schedules • Branch and Price Framework • Techniques for large-scale optimization • Not an “out of the box” solution

  21. IRIS III: Branch and Price:Branch & Bound + Column Generation First Node: all ai [0,1] Second node: a1= 0, arest [0,1] Lower bound 1: a1= 1, arest= 0 Third node: a1,a2= 0, arest [0,1] Lower bound 2: a1= 0, a2= 1, arest= 0 LB last: ak= 1, arest= 0 Not “out of the box” • Bounds and branching: IRIS I • Column generation leaf nodes: • Network flow

  22. Column Generation “Slave” Problem Solution with N joint schedules “Master” Problem (mixed integer program) Target 7 Target 3 (N+1)th joint schedule Restricted set of joint schedules Resource Sink Return the “best” joint schedule to add … Minimum cost network flow: Identifies joint schedule to add … Capacity 1 on all links

  23. Results: IRIS III IRIS II B&P IRIS III

  24. Modeling Complex Security Games • Approach: domain experts supply the model • Experts must understand necessary game inputs • What information is available? Sensitive? • Number of inputs must be reasonable (tens, not thousands) • What models can we solve computationally?

  25. Robustness • We do not know exactly • Strategies/capabilities • Payoffs/preferences • Observation capabilities • … • How can we take this into account? • Richer models • Faster algorithms to solve these models • Sensitivity analysis

  26. Approximating Infinite Bayesian Games Idea: replace point estimates for attacker payoffs with Gaussian distributions

  27. Attacker Surveillance: Stackelbergvs Nash • Defender commits first: • Attacker conducts surveillance • Stackelberg (SSE) • Simultaneous move game: • Attacker conducts no surveillance • Mixed strategy Nash (NE) Set of defender strategies How should a defender compute her strategy? For security games with SSAS: NE = Minimax SSE

  28. Evaluation of Real-World Applications “Application track” papers: • Beyond run-time and optimality • Difficult and not “Solved”!

  29. So how can we evaluate?... No 100% security; are we better off than previous approaches? • Models and simulations • Human adversaries in the lab • Expert evaluation Systems in use for a number of years: internal evaluations • Future: • Newer domains that allow validation in the real-world • Criminologists (TSA)

  30. Models & Simulations I

  31. Human Adversaries In the Lab

  32. Human Adversaries in the Lab • ARMOR: Outperforms uninformed random, not Maximin • COBRA: Anchoring bias, “epsilon-optimal”

  33. Expert Evaluation I April 2008 February 2009 LAX Spokesperson, CNN.com, July 14, 2010: "Randomization and unpredictability is a key factor in keeping the terrorists unbalanced….It is so effective that airports across the United States are adopting this method."

  34. Expert Evaluation II • Federal Air Marshals Service (May 2010): We…have continued to expand the number of flights scheduled using IRIS….we are satisfied with IRIS and confident in using this scheduling approach.

  36. Deployed Applications: ARMOR, IRIS, GUARDS • Research challenges • Efficient algorithms: Scale-up to real-world problems • Observability: Adversary surveillance uncertainty • Human adversary: Bounded rationality, observation power • …
