SIMULATING A BOT-NET SPANNING A PLURALITY OF GEOGRAPHIC REGIONS

摘要

Computer systems and methods in various embodiments are configured to test the security of a server computer by simulating a wide range of attacks from one or more bot-nets. In an embodiment, a computer system comprising a memory; a processor in a home geographic region coupled to the memory; a plurality of network cards in the home geographic region, coupled to the processor and the memory; wherein each network card in the plurality of network cards is configured to send one or more requests to a remote server computer through a geographic region, of a plurality of geographic regions, that is different than the home geographic region; wherein, for each network card of the plurality of network cards, the processor is configured to store in the memory a geo-mapping, of a plurality of geo-mappings, wherein the geo-mapping indicates the certain geographic region the network card is configured to send the one or more requests to the remote server computer through.
