Application protocol fuzzing has long been part of the Security Auditor's toolkit, but more and more projects are beginning to use fuzzing as part of their normal process for measuring the performance and security of a cyber infrastructure device or system. A fuzzer is a piece of software that intentionally sends out data containing injected errors. Simulating this invalid data exposes vulnerabilities and weaknesses.

BreakingPoint protocol fuzzing is supported by the Stack Scrambler component and allows you to emulate malformed data or to provide too much data in hopes that something will break, unveiling vulnerabilities. BreakingPoint’s Sean Bradly brings you this in-depth guide on how the BreakingPoint CTM™ products can be used to emulate application protocol fuzzing, detailing the importance of application fuzzing and how to assess cyber infrastructure with these scenarios.
