  Abstract

The intrusion tolerance method can provide sustainable services in case of cybersecurity breaches. We propose a network intrusion tolerance method that identifies compromised nodes by utilizing Bayesian attack graphs (BAGs) and changes the IP/MAC addresses of the nodes to prevent the spread of attacks. Furthermore, we leverage software-defined networks (SDN) and virtualization technologies to recover only the resources that are expected to be compromised in order to minimize the performance degradation of the services. To validate the efficiency of the proposed intrusion tolerance technique, we generate a set of random attack paths and investigate how accurately the attack paths can be predicted by the proposed method in comparison with other methods. Experimental results show that the proposed intrusion tolerance method can successfully estimate attack-prone nodes and selectively perform the network address change and the service recovery of the nodes, resulting in high service persistence with low intrusion-tolerance overhead.
