SUMMARY:Security Testbed for Preempting Attacks against Supercomputing Inf
 rastructure: A Case Study of a Ransomware.
DESCRIPTION:Phuong Cao (University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, National 
 Center for Supercomputing Applications (NCSA)) and Ravi Iyer and Kalbarczy
 k Zbigniew (University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign)\n\nPreempting attacks
  targeting supercomputing systems before damage remains the top security p
 riority. The main challenge is that noisy attack attempts and unreliable a
 lerts often mask real attacks. This paper describes a security testbed emb
 edded in live traffic of a supercomputer at the National Center for Superc
 omputing Applications (NCSA). The objective is to demonstrate attack preem
 ption, i.e., stopping system compromise and data breaches at petascale sup
 ercomputers. Deployment of our testbed at NCSA enables the following key c
 ontributions: 1) Insights from characterizing unique attack patterns found
  in real security logs of more than 200 security incidents curated in the 
 past two decades at NCSA. 2) Deployment of an attack visualization tool to
  illustrate the challenges of identifying real attacks in HPC environments
  and to support security operators in interactive attack analyses. 3) Demo
 nstrate the testbed's utility by running novel models, such as Factor Grap
 h-Based models, to preempt a real-world ransomware family.\n\nTag: Applica
