Simulating cyber-intrusion using ordered UML model-based scenarios

Abstract

Network security simulator is required for the study on the cyber intrusion and defense as cyber terrors have been increasingly popular. Until now, network security simulation aims at estimation of a small-size network or performance analysis of information protection systems. However, a systematic way to develop network security simulation is needed. In this paper, an ordered UML-based scenario model and its network security simulator are proposed. A network security scenario is presented as a case study of our proposed simulation model. © Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2005.
