SIMULATION OF MALWARE WITH CHANGING SIGNATURES

Abstract: a computer-implemented method of simulating a propagation of a malware through a set of computer systems, the method comprising: identifying a simulated computer system infected with a simulated malware; determining a first signature of the simulated malware; determining that a mutation condition for the simulated malware has been met; and in response to determining that the mutation period has been met, changing the first signature of the simulated malware to a second signature.
