METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR SIMULATING A GROUP OF CO-OPERATING INTELLIGENT HACKERS TO ASSESS VULNERABILITIES ASSOCIATED WITH A NETWORK OF DATA PROCESSING UNITS AND EXECUTE AN AUTOMATED MULTI-STAGED PENETRATION TEST
A method and system for simulating a group of co-operating intelligent hackers for assessing vulnerabilities and risk management associated with a network of data processing units (DPUs), inclusive of the humans (users of the DPUs) and communication links connecting the network of DPUs is provided. The method includes receiving one or more scan parameters from a user of a system and gathering information about the network of DPUs and humans. The method also includes analyzing the vulnerabilities associated with the DPUs and its users and generating an attack graph, and also enumerating potential attacks on the network. Further, the method includes planning and launching the attack and installing an agent on a compromised DPU to assist in carrying further attacks on the network of DPUs and humans. Consequently, all the vulnerabilities associated with the network can be assessed.
