Abstract
Security researchers do not have sufficient example systems for conducting research on advanced persistent threats,
and companies and agencies that experience attacks in the wild are reluctant to release detailed information that can be
examined. In this paper, we describe an Advanced Persistent Threat Exemplar that is intended to provide a real-world
attack scenario with sufficient complexity for reasoning about defensive system adaptation, while not containing so
much information as to be too complex. It draws from actual published attacks and experiences as a security engineer
by the authors. |
