Abstract

Die Integration von Simulationstechniken mit dem OODA-Loop-Konzept (Observe-Orient-Decide-Act) in die Cybersicherheit von Logistikprozessen bietet eine innovative Lösung, um den wachsenden und sich ständig weiterentwickelnden Bedrohungen in der digitalen Welt zu begegnen. Durch die Simulation potenzieller Angriffsszenarien können Unternehmen Schwachstellen in ihren Systemen identifizieren und proaktive Maßnahmen zu deren Behebung ergreifen. Basierend auf den Prinzipien der schnellen Entscheidungsfindung und Anpassungsfähigkeit ermöglicht der OODA-Loop Entscheidungsträgern, in Echtzeit auf Bedrohungen zu reagieren und geeignete Gegenmaßnahmen zu ergreifen. Hybride Simulationsmodelle, die verschiedene Techniken kombinieren, stellen Angriffsszenarien in Logistikprozessen mit einem hohen Maß an Realismus und Detailtreue dar. Diese Modelle können zahlreiche Faktoren berücksichtigen, darunter die Interaktionen zwischen verschiedenen Akteuren in der Lieferkette, die Auswirkungen von Cyberangriffen auf den Betrieb sowie potenzielle finanzielle und betriebliche Schäden. Darüber hinaus fördert die Integration des OODA-Loops in den Simulationsprozess die kontinuierliche Verbesserung der Strategien zur Reaktion auf Vorfälle. Zusammenfassend lässt sich sagen, dass die Kombination von Simulationstechniken mit dem OODA-Loop-Konzept eine wissenschaftlich neuartige, robuste und ganzheitliche Strategie zur Verbesserung der Sicherheit von Logistikprozessen in einer komplexen und sich ständig verändernden Cybersicherheitslandschaft darstellt. Durch proaktive Risikominderung, schnelle Entscheidungsfindung und kontinuierliche Verbesserung können Unternehmen ihre Cybersicherheit stärken und die Integrität ihrer Lieferketten schützen.
