Abstract:
Moving Target Defense (MTD) is a proactive security mechanism that changes the
attack surface with the aim of confusing attackers. Cloud computing leverages
MTD techniques to enhance the cloud security posture against cyber threats.
While many MTD techniques have been applied to cloud computing, there has so far
been no joint evaluation of the effectiveness of MTD techniques with respect to
security and economic metrics. In this paper, we first introduce mathematical
definitions for the combination of three MTD techniques: Shuffle, Diversity, and
Redundancy. Then, we utilize four security metrics-namely, system risk, attack
cost, return on attack, and reliability-to assess the effectiveness of the
combined MTD techniques applied to large-scale cloud models. Second, we focus on
a specific context based on a cloud model for e-health applications to evaluate
the effectiveness of the MTD techniques using security and economic metrics. We
introduce (1) a strategy to effectively deploy the Shuffle MTD technique using a
virtual machine placement technique, and (2) two strategies to deploy the
Diversity MTD technique through operating system diversification. As deploying
the Diversity technique incurs costs, we formulate the optimal diversity
assignment problem (O-DAP), and solve it as a binary linear programming model to
obtain the assignment that maximizes the expected net benefit.
