1. Method comprising:
receiving an information on a current state of a system;
retrieving, for each of one or more cognitive functions, respective one or more stored triples for a configuration parameter of the system;
predicting, for each of the one or more cognitive functions, a respective expected value of the configuration parameter based on the current state of the system and the respective stored triples;
receiving a calculated optimized value for the configuration parameter;
reducing a potential degradation of a performance of the system based on the expected value for at least one of the one or more cognitive functions and the calculated optimized value for the configuration parameter, wherein
for each of the one or more cognitive functions, each of the one or more stored triples comprises an information on a respective previous state of the system, a respective applied value of the configuration parameter, and a respective previous optimal configuration range set for the configuration parameter with respect to the respective cognitive function;
for each of the one or more cognitive functions, each of the optimal configuration range sets of the stored triples indicates a respective range of values for the configuration parameter desired previously by the respective cognitive function;
the configuration parameter defines at least a part of a configuration of the system;
reducing the potential degradation is based on a comparison of a first performance of the system under an assumption that none of the one or more cognitive functions has manipulative behavior with a second performance of the system under an assumption that at least one of the one or more cognitive functions has manipulative behavior.
