Abstract

Recently, proactive strategies have received much attention as they make a system more dynamic and difficult to predict, therefore reducing the impact of adversary attacks. In this paper, we aim at modeling and evaluating the effectiveness of proactive cyber maneuvers to protect the critical path between a source-destination pair for mission operations in a mobile ad-hoc network (MANET) in the presence of an adversary. We propose a generic framework to analytically model cyber maneuvers and define their associated utilities. With the proposed framework, we develop the optimal solution to maximize the lifetime of the critical path with security assurance. We find that sufficient statistical information in the network is vital for the network defender to be proactive, choose the best cyber maneuvers to protect the critical path, and consequently outperform conventional reactive strategies. We also use simulations to validate the effectiveness of our solution.

主动或不主动:一个框架模型网络机动的关键路径保护在manet
最近,主动策略受到了很多关注,因为它们使系统更加动态和难以预测,因此减少了对手攻击的影响。在本文中,我们的目标是建模和评估主动网络机动的有效性,以保护在对手存在的移动自组织网络(MANET)中任务操作的源-目的地对之间的关键路径。我们提出了一个通用的框架来分析模拟网络演习,并定义其相关的效用。利用所提出的框架,我们开发了最优解决方案,以最大限度地延长关键路径的生命周期,并保证安全。我们发现,网络中足够的统计信息对于网络防御者积极主动,选择最佳网络机动来保护关键路径,从而优于传统的反应策略至关重要。我们还使用仿真来验证我们的解决方案的有效性。
