Project description

Network Threat Simulator Tool (NTST) is an open-source initiative to build a tool that will be able to effectively simulate any network threat including vulnerability exploits, worms, Trojans and spywares in a very controlled manner. The tool will provide a GUI to end user using which the user will be able to select a category of threat and threat, he wants to simulate, and to choose custom simulation released by the NTST development team or online security community and approved by NTST development team.

The major advantage of this tool will be the ability to safely test the effectiveness of the network security devices (Intrusion Detection/Prevention Systems and Firewalls) on the production network itself for any newly discovered threats using common simulation environment in which any publicly available vulnerability exploit code can be injected and safely simulated.

Initial focus will be on the malware simulation module which should be able to simulate worms, Trojans (backdoors, password stealers, ...) and spyware activity against network security devices (IDS/IPS/Firewalls). Later, we’ll focus on vulnerability simulations.
