DESCRIPTION:This study aims to understand efficient network formation and 
 optimal defensive resource distribution in the presence of an intelligent 
 attacker. We present a two-player dynamic framework in which the Defender 
 and the Attacker compete in a network formation and defence game with hete
 rogeneous vertices' values. Such a model allows for studying the trade-off
  between network efficiency and security. Contrary to the literature\, we 
 find that a centrally protected star network does not yield the maximum pa
 yoff for the defending side in most circumstances\, even being the most se
 cure network formation. Additionally\, it reveals the new type of network 
 that often arises in an equilibrium of the games with limited defensive re
 sources -- a maxi-core network.
