Attacking Time
Abstract
Th e primary goal of this research project was to explore an alternative to conventional network defense based on attacking an adversary's timeliness . This involved devising methods and techniques to increase attacker workload and operate through attacks even if the attacks are never detected. The research has resulted in a new way to structure distributed systems based on a non - deterministic defense-in-depth. This defense combines a series of breakthrough technologies that collectively provide an insurmountable barrier to the tactical viability of Advanced Persistent Threats (APT's). The ideas have been incorporated into a clean-slate, proof-of-concept operating system--Bear--that operates on Dell workstations, ARM embedded processors, and large-scale multicore blade--servers.
