Survey of Cyber Moving Targets Second Edition

Abstract

This survey provides an overview of different cyber moving-target techniques, their threat models, and their technical details. A cyber moving-target technique refers to any technique that attempts to defend a system and increase the complexity of cyber attacks by making the system less homogeneous, static, or deterministic. This survey describes the technical details of each technique, identifies the proper threat model associated with the technique, as well as its implementation and operational costs. Moreover, this survey describes the weaknesses of each technique based on the current proposed attacks and bypassing exploits, and provides possible directions for future research in that area
