    Abstract : The attack path is an effective tool for showing possible hacking routestaken by an attacker to target a specific computer network. It also informsadministrators about potential weakness in a network helpingthem roll-out network configuration changes. Based on predefinedcomputing methods, a large number of attack paths can be generated. READ MORE
