Visualization, according to a cybersecurity expert in Japan, can go a long way toward raising awareness and fortifying defenses.

This is the thinking behind Daedalus, a network monitoring system developed by the Cybersecurity Laboratory at the National Institute of Information and Communications Technology, or NICT.
