NeSSi² is an open source project developed at the DAI-Labor and sponsored by Deutsche Telekom Laboratories.

NeSSi² (Network Security Simulator) is a novel network simulation tool which incorporates a variety of features relevant to network security distinguishing it from general-purpose network simulators. Its capabilities such as profile-based automated attack generation, traffic analysis and support for the detection algorithm plugins allow it to be used for security research and evaluation purposes.
