A behavior-based security system of a computing device may be protected from non-benign behavior, malware, and cyber attacks by configuring the device to work in conjunction with another component (e.g., a server) to monitor the accuracy and performance of the security system, and determine whether the system is working correctly, efficiently, or as expected. This may be accomplished via the server generating artificial attack software, sending the generated artificial attack software to the mobile device to simulate non-benign behavior in the mobile device, such as a cyber attack, and determining whether the behavior-based security system of the mobile device responded adequately to the simulated non-benign behavior. The sever may send a dead-man signal to the mobile device in response to determining that the behavior-based security system of the mobile device did not respond adequately to the simulated non-benign behavior. |
