        abstract = {A multiphase distributed vulnerability detection, measurement, and countermeasure selection mechanism called NICE, which is built on attack graph-based analytical models and reconfigurable virtual network-based countermeasures. The proposed framework leverages Open Flow network programming APIs to build a monitor and control plane over distributed programmable virtual switches to significantly improve attack detection and mitigate attack consequence. The system and security evaluations demonstrate the efficiency and effectiveness of the proposed solution. The proposed solution can significantly reduce the risk of the cloud system from being exploited and abused by internal and external attackers. NICE only investigates the network IDS approach to counter zombie exploitative attacks. To improve the detection accuracy, host-based IDS solutions are needed to be incorporated and to cover the whole spectrum of IDS in the cloud system.},
