Modelling penetration testing with reinforcement learning using capture‐the‐flag challenges: Trade‐offs between model‐free learning and a priori knowledge
Abstract Penetration testing is a security exercise aimed at assessing the security of a system by simulating attacks against it. So far, penetration testing has been carried out mainly by trained human attackers and its success critically depended on the available expertise. Automating this practic...
