  abstract  = {The Infrastructure of modern society is controlled by software systems
	that are vulnerable to attacks. Many such attacks, launched by "recreational
	hackers" have already led to severe disruptions and significant cost.
	It, therefore, is critical that we find ways to protect such systems
	and to enable them to continue functioning even after a successful
	attack. This paper describes AWDRAT, a middleware system for providing
	survivability to both new and legacy applications. AWDRAT stands
	for Architectural-differencing, Wrappers, Diagnosis, Recovery, Adaptive
	software, and Trust-modeling. AWDRAT uses these techniques to gain
	visibility into the execution of an application system and to compare
	the application's actual behavior to that which is expected. In the
	case of a deviation, AWDRAT conducts a diagnosis that figures out
	which computational resources are likely to have been compromised
	and then adds these assessments to its trust-model. The trust model
	in turn guides the recovery process, particularly by guiding the
	system in its choice among functionally equivalent methods and resources.
	AWDRAT has been used on an example application system, a graphical
	editor for constructing mission plans. We present data showing the
	effectiveness of AWDRAT in detecting a variety of compromises to
	the application system.},
