dc.description.abstractDifferent assessment models exist to measure a country's cyber security maturity levels. These levels serve as a benchmark for indicating how well prepared a nation is against a cyber security attack and how resilient it would be in recovering from such an attack. However, results from these maturity assessments are either too general, overly complex, or resource intensive to apply and guide important national cyber security strategies and frameworks. To address this we propose a model to link national culture with a country's cyber security maturity through fuzzy logic mapping to ensure that a more uniform reflection of the cyber security maturity level within a country can be measured. In this paper, we present additional research towards optimising our model. The extended model incorporates input from two cyber security assessment models, and validates the refined output models on 11 countries to compare the maturity levels from the traditional assessment model with our optimised fuzzy model. Our results show that it is viable to reduce the resources required to conduct a national cyber security maturity assessment.
