Cyber Threat Mission Builder
Abstract
Cyber threat mission builder seeks to assist industry members in the design of realistic cyber threat missions that their individual organizations might encounter. By designing realistic threat missions, organizations can develop a better understanding of the attack surface they expose to adversaries as well as the types of adversaries that might target them, the types of attacks, and the motivation behind the attacks. The cyber threat mission builder assists these individuals by walking them through the definition of their target environment and the stages of an adversary mission, along with specific tactics that adversaries use to accomplish the goals of those stages. This leads to a better understanding of threats, and a better ability to assess defenses. The level of detail captured in the cyber threat mission models makes it possible to produce mission scripts that can be used for training exercises such as incident response and penetration testing.
