Methods and systems of correlating network attacks with network element behavior

Abstract

Embodiments of the present disclosure include a method of analyzing the results of a network attack function within an IoT environment, for example a vehicular, residential, or industrial computing environment including two or more network elements each with at least one known parameter, the method including a) executing one or more network attack functions against two or more known network elements; b) analyzing results of at least one network attack function to identify anomalous behavior of at least one network element; and c) correlating the identified anomalous behavior of the at least one network element with a specific network attack function permutation and with at least one parameter of the specific network element. In some embodiments, the one or more network attack functions includes a set of attack function permutations.
