Abstract
A security analysis methodology is used to analyze the security of a device-under-analysis (DUA) with respect to a particular protocol message exchange. First, the mutation points that exist in the message exchange are determined. Then, the message exchange is executed multiple times—once for each mutation point. Each execution applies the mutation associated with that particular mutation point (e.g., a particular message during the exchange is modified in a particular way) to create a mutated message exchange. In other words, each message exchange with an applied mutation point corresponds to a test case.
