Abstract
Methods and systems for implementing a moving target defense are described. The moving target defense can comprise obfuscating a protocol identifier within a packet. The protocol identifier can be replaced with a faux protocol identifier. Additionally, diversion headers can be inserted into to the packet, thereby creating additional layers of complexity.
