Abstract The purpose of the Intrusion Tolerance by Unpredictable Adaptation (ITUA) project is to develop a middleware based intrusion tolerance solution that would help applications survive certain kinds of attacks. This paper presents an overview and the key aspects of the ITUA project. We will describe the kind of attacks we are considering, how unpredictability can be used for intrusion tolerance, the architecture of the intrusion tolerant system we are envisioning, and the protocols we are developing to obtain a group communication system that tolerates the intrusions specified in the ITUA project.
