Toward hybrid attack dependency graphs

This extended abstract presents a set of continuous-domain extensions to the attack graph, a formalism used to model the interactions of multiple exploits and assets in a network. These extensions result in a new modeling framework called the hybrid attack dependency graph, which provides the novel capability of modeling continuous state variables and their evolution over the execution of attacks with duration.
