Infection Monkey: Data Center Security Testing Tool

Welcome to the Infection Monkey!

The Infection Monkey is comprised of two parts:

  • Monkey – A tool which infects other machines and propagates to them.
  • Monkey Island – A dedicated server to control and visualize the Infection Monkey’s progress inside the data center.
