NOTE FROM CLEMENT:

This is a  really nice document that covers threat and simulation of threats.  If you wish to build your own test environment to simulate attack this document can help you in the planning phase and subsequent phase.  Let me tell you that it is a very large document and lots of work has been put into it.   Olu Akindeinde has once again done an amazing job and I congratulate him for contributing the document to the community in such a generous fashion.  You don`t have to submit any information to get the document.  Just click on the PDF link below and you can look at the document right away. 

Here is the description from the author:

Attack Simulation and Threat Modeling is a book that explores the abundant resources available in advanced security data collection, classification, processing and mining. It attempts to give insight into a number of alternative methods of security and attack analytics that leverage methodologies adopted from various other disciplines in extracting valuable data to support security research work and chart a course for enterprise security decision making. 

Synopsis

NOTE FROM CLEMENT:

You may also wish to look at the first book published by Olu as well:

My name is Olu Akindeinde from down town Africa. I will like to share my book with this community. It is on Security Analysis and Data Visualization. Whilst being practical oriented with 38 case studies and a number of illustrations, it is also organised to follow the same model as Davix i.e Capture -> Process -> Visualize with the addition of a last layer, Govern. The book is licensed under the GNU Free documentation Licence and can be downloaded free. I hope it is useful to the community at large. It can be downloaded here:
