Producing and evaluating crowdsourced computer security attack trees

We describe the recent developments of an open-source project called RATCHET that can be used by groups of users to collectively construct attack trees. We present the RATCHET framework as well as a model for testing and evaluation of the produced attack trees. RATCHET has been tested in classroom settings with positive results and this paper presents the plans for expanding its outreach to the community at large and building attack trees through crowdsourcing. This paper gives an overview of RATCHET and an introduction to its use.
