Abstract

Attack survival, which means the ability to provide some level of service despite an ongoing attack by tolerating its impact, is an important objective of security research. In this paper we present a new approach to survivability and intrusion tolerance. Our approach, which we call "survival by defense" is based on the observation that many applications can be given increased resistance to malicious attack even though the environment in which they run is untrustworthy. This paper describes the concept of "survival by defense" in general and explains the assumptions on which it depends. We will also explain the goals of survival by defense and how they can be achieved.
