Abstract

This paper describes a computer network moving target defense (MTD) system that incorporates the benefits of both literal modifications of various network aspects along with semantic changes made to several fundamental aspects of the network. The result is a cryptographically strong MTD system that is transparent to legitimate users while appearing random and chaotic to potential attackers.
