An initial framework for evolving computer configurations as a moving target defense

An evolutionary process encourages a system to change, and hopefully improve, based on environmental feed-back. When applied to a computer system, an evolutionary inspired process can be used to discover computer configurations that are different and potentially more secure. These configurations can be instantiated at different times to create a Moving Target Defense (MTD), where attackers must contend with a system that constantly changes and improves.
