Chameleon, and Simulating Self Propagating Malware to Evaluate Detection Technology

How do you develop and evaluate a new analytic on a network connection data set across large, enterprise systems without malware used to train machine learning models for cyber attacks? Researchers at the University of Virginia approach the problem by simulating self-propagating malware.

Chameleon Changelog for June 2022

This month, we bring to you the much awaited filesystem preview, and a massive Openstack upgrade. We also have a new CHI-in-a-Box version to go along with the upgrade, and some reservation usability improvements.

CHI-in-a-Box Update

Did you ever wonder what makes your favorite testbed “go”? The answer is  CHameleon Infrastructure, or CHI for short – packaged as CHI-in-a-Box so that anybody can run their own testbed. We blogged about it a year or so ago, and a lot can change in a year, so this blog brings you some important updates. Not least, there is now a paper on CHI-in-a-Box so you can join the testbed as an Associate Site!
