Data Theft Repackaged: A Case Study in Malicious Wrapper Packages on npm
The Socket Research Team breaks down a malicious wrapper package that uses obfuscation to harvest credentials and exfiltrate sensitive data.
Symian is a tool, based on what-if scenario analysis and discrete-event simulation, for the modeling of a hierarchical and multi-level incident management structures. The simulative approach allows to extract important metrics and statistics in complex and dynamic systems, which would otherwise be impossible to obtain by means of the analytical approach. Symian allows to test corrective actions on the architecture itself of support groups before executing them in practice.
Symian (more precisely an earlier version of it) was used in the following research papers:
Please, consider citing some of these papers if you find Symian useful for your research.
I am still in the process of cleaning up the Symian code. As soon as I am done, I will commit it here and upload updated installation and usage information.
