Abstract
A system, method, and computer program product are provided for providing security in Network Function Virtualization (NFV) based communication networks and Software Defined Networks (SDNs). In use, a system implements one or more network changes or security configuration changes to an NFV based communication network or a SDN to change an attack surface. In one embodiment, implementing the one or more network changes or security configuration changes to the NFV based communication network or the SDN may occur periodically to change the attack surface. In another embodiment, implementing the one or more network changes or the security configuration changes to the NFV based communication network or the SDN to change the attack surface may occur based on detection of a malicious event or a suspicious event.
