Application research on network attacks and defenses with zachman framework

Abstract

With the development of the Internet, offensive and defensive techniques become increasingly important. How to macroscopically grasp and understand offensive and defensive situation is necessary. In this paper, we use the international popular Zachman Framework (ZF), combined with management ideas, to build the Network Attack and Defensive Framework (NADF). The framework provides a structured way for any attack and defense to acquire the necessary knowledge. When attacks and defenses are brought into the management structure, we will more easily find system weakness. Especially for defense system, we can further improve the defense capability. Moreover, the framework is useful for security measurement in enterprises or organizations.
