Attacker Engagement

Jeffrey Pawlick, Quanyan Zhu

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingChapter

Abstract

Advanced persistent threats (APTs) are multistage attacks that make use of social engineering and deception to give adversaries insider access to networked systems. Against APTs, active defense technologies create and exploit information asymmetry for defenders. If these active defenses are also dynamic, then we have the species of deception that Chap. 4 calls attacker engagement.
