The Emulytics™ program at Sandia National Laboratories is focused on the scientific pursuit of the understanding of the behavior of complex, distributed cyber system.
Over the last decade, we have developed and has deployed a suite of cyber emulation, modeling, and analysis tools that support uses including predictive simulation, training, test & evaluation, and resilient system design.
The term “Emulytics” was coined by practitioners to capture the intent of these efforts – a holistic approach to system emulation and analytics.
HADES
The HADES Platform radically changes the way cyber defenders protect their networks and gain insight by gathering information on the adversary’s tools, tactics and procedures. The High-fidelity Adaptive Deception & Emulation System being developed at Sandia National Labs creates complex and realistic environments that an actor can interact with – something current honeypots and other deceptive techniques do no offer.
