Vulnerability Assessment & Mitigation Methodology

摘要

As information systems become increasingly important to the functions of organizations, security and reliable operation of these systems are also becoming increasingly important. Interoperability, information sharing, collaboration, design imperfections, limitations, and the like lead to vulnerabilities that can endanger information system security and operation. Unfortunately, understanding an organization's reliance on information systems, the vulnerabilities of these systems, and how to mitigate the vulnerabilities has been a daunting challenge, especially for less wellknown or even unknown vulnerabilities that do not have a history of being exploited.
