While the size of a data breach is typically measured by the number of (consumer, customer, or user) records exposed or compromised, its economic impact is generally measured from the point of view of the corporation suffering the data…
In the realm of cost-sharing mechanisms, the vulnerability to Sybil strategies -- also known as false-name strategies, where agents create fake identities to manipulate outcomes -- has not yet been studied. In this paper, we delve into the…
