This paper proposes to integrate SCE into Breach Attack Simulation (BAS) platforms, leveraging adversary profiles and abilities from existing threat intelligence databases. This innovative proposal for cyberattack simulation employs a structured architecture composed of three layers: SCE Orchestrator, Connector, and BAS layers. Utilizing MITRE Caldera in the BAS layer, our proposal executes automated attack sequences, creating inferred attack trees from adversary profiles. Our proposal evaluation illustrates how integrating SCE with BAS can enhance the effectiveness of attack simulations beyond traditional scenarios, and be a useful component of a cyber defense strategy.","short_abstract":"In today digital landscape, organizations face constantly evolving cyber threats, making it essential to discover slippery attack vectors through novel techniques like Security Chaos Engineering (SCE), which allows teams to test defenses and identify vulnerabilities effectively.
