Abstract
One variation of a method for emulating a known attack on a computer network includes: generating a set of data packets by recombining packet fragments within a packet capture file representing packet fragments transmitted between machines during a prior malicious attack on a second network; defining transmission triggers for transmission of the set of data packets between pairs of agents connected to a target network based on timestamps of packet fragments in the packet capture file; initiating transmission of the set of data packets between the pairs agents according to the set of transmission triggers to simulate the malicious attack on the target network; and, in response to absence of a security event related to the simulation in a log of a security technology deployed on the target network, generating a prompt to reconfigure the security technology to respond to the malicious attack.
