Claim 6:
7. The method of claim 1, further comprising:
accessing a second set of data packets representing data transmitted between machines in communication with a third computer network during a second malicious attack on the third computer network during a third time period;
accessing a second set of agents, installed on assets in communication with the target computer network, as actors in a second simulation of the second malicious attack on the target computer network;
for each data packet in the second set of data packets:
defining a transmission trigger, in a second set of transmission triggers, for the data packet based on transmission of corresponding data during the second malicious attack on the third computer network;
designating a recipient agent, in the second set of agents, to receive the data packet;
designating a second source agent, in the second set of agents, to transmit the data packet to the recipient agent according to the transmission trigger; and
triggering storage of the data packet in local memory at the source agent;

during a fourth time period succeeding the third time period, initiating transmission of the second set of data packets from source agents to recipient agents, in the second set of agents, according to the second set of transmission triggers to simulate the second malicious attack on the target computer network;
accessing a second set of network event records generated by a second security technology, deployed on the target computer network, during the fourth time period; and
in response to presence of a second network event record, in the second set of network event records, indicating the second malicious attack, confirming configuration of the second security technology to respond to computer network attacks analogous to the second malicious attack at the target computer network.
