Description

The objective of the proposed project is to develop technology that infers the intent and strategy of malware. This technology can then be used in conjunction with decoys and honeytokens to gather detailed information on malware intent and strategy, which will reveal valuable intelligence concerning the adversary and insights into the best defensive strategies. The proposed effort will focus on malware that infects avionics systems. A test bed will be constructed that includes Mission Control and Flight Control computers, a simulated sensor pod, all connected by a standard avionics bus. The test bed will enable us to develop the technology in a realistic environment and to demonstrate the technology operating in a simulated operational context.
