Abstract
Data security is enhanced by injecting insecurity into communications between two computer systems to test one of the computer systems. The insecurity is injected by modifying the communications between the two computer systems by modifying or adding messages. A response from one of the computer systems is monitored to determine whether the computer system reacts to the modification in a secure manner or if mitigating actions need to be performed.
