i-EXAM: Instructable and Explainable Attack Connectivity Graph Modeler
A planning-based tool for generating attack connectivity graphs lets administrators model network hardening scenarios with formal soundness guarantees — useful for structured red-team preparation.
Summary written by editorial AI · Source link below
arXiv:2607.05888v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: i-EXAM is a planning-powered tool that helps system administrators to create security profiles of complex networks and perform what-if analyses to identify network hardening strategies. It leverages planning compilation that provides soundness and completeness guarantees to identify attack paths, evaluate security metrics, generate diverse hardening strategies, and explain these strategies in natural language using Large Language Models.
Editorial Analysis
Automated, formally sound what-if analysis for network hardening could reduce manual effort in complex enterprise environments and improve the rigour of threat modelling.
Pilot a planning-based attack-graph approach on a representative network zone to benchmark it against existing threat-modelling workflows.
