Abstract

In order to identify and reduce the chance of vulnerability, a novel policy-based intrusion tolerant system (ITS) is studied in this paper. The suggested scheme quantifies the vulnerability level first, and then applies it to decide the candidate of the next rotation based on a policy. Experiments using CSIM 20 proved that it has enough capability to hide the VM rotation pattern which attackers are generally interested in and reduces the data leakage of the system greatly in spite of increasing the number of exposures.
