Abstract :
In this paper we present the notion of protocol masking. Protocol masking is the process of transforming a protocol that is not allowed by a use-policy into a protocol that is allowed by the policy in order to evade policy enforcement mechanisms. We present the design and implementation architecture of a tool for protocol masking. The tool can be used to test the efficacy of policy enforcement mechanisms.
