Claim Text:
1. A computer-implemented method, comprising: determining based on historical data, by a computing system, which anomalous real network connections to generate between a plurality of computing systems in a network to create the anomalous real network connections based on stochastic models, the anomalous real network connections forming a k-path between the plurality of computing systems comprising a plurality of directed edges, each directed edge comprising associated data; generating, by the plurality of computing systems, the determined anomalous real network connections between the plurality of computing systems in the network; building stochastic models, by the computing system, for each directed edge in the k-paths of each of the anomalous network connections; comparing historical parameters with current parameters in a time window, by the computing system, to determine a level of anomalousness of each of the k-paths; generating, by the plurality of computing systems, data mimicking an attack; and transmitting, by the plurality of computing systems, the generated data between the plurality of computing systems using the determined anomalous real network connections forming respective k-paths.
