Helix: A Self-Regenerative Architecture for the Incorruptible Enterprise

Abstract

The focus of the Helix project was to dramatically improve the status quo for architecting secure and resilient information systems by developing a coherent body of scientific and engineering knowledge to design and evaluate new algorithms and concepts for self-regenerative systems. The hallmarks of such systems is that they are automated and proactive; they can adapt and reconfigure themselves to present attackers with an ever-shifting attack surface; and they can self-heal when confronted with both known and unknown attacks.
