What is Cyber Attack Modeling

Cyber attack modeling ( https://www.xmcyber.com/glossary/what-is-cyber-attack-modeling/ ) is the process of creating a detailed description of how a cyber attack could be carried out against a specific system or network. Cyber attack modeling is an approximation of adversarial threats against a computer system. Cyber attack models are created to identify and simulate attacks against security environments, using likely adversary techniques and attack paths. By modeling attacks, defenders better understand the behavior, tactics and objectives of adversaries and can take steps to remediate any vulnerabilities within their environments. Organizations often engage in threat modeling, risk assessment and attack modeling to manage cybersecurity risk. Attack modeling deals with precisely how vulnerabilities are exploited to create a loss. Simulating cyber attacks in a controlled environment is one of the most effective attack modeling implementations. Breach and attack simulation platforms allow organizations to mimic the techniques and tactics of adversaries across likely cyber attack vectors. By engaging in attack modeling, it is possible to gain deeper insight into the vulnerability of a security environment and understand the behavior and objectives of adversaries. Ultimately, it then becomes possible to deter cyber attacks or handle incoming attacks in a carefully planned and responsive fashion.
