Methods and systems for predicting attack vectors in computer networks

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To predict an accurate and efficient attack route in a computer network. An attack vector prediction system has static and dynamic data associated with a source node attacked in a computer network and one or more associated with one or more target nodes reachable from the source node. Receive static and dynamic risk attributes for vulnerabilities. Likelihood scores are based on static and dynamic risk attributes and are associated with one or more vulnerabilities associated with a source node and one or more associated with one or more target nodes. Calculated for each vulnerability. In addition, the predicted score is calculated for each of the one or more vulnerabilities associated with the target node, based on the corresponding likelihood score and static and dynamic risk attributes. Then, based on the predicted score, the attack vector between the source node and one or more target nodes is predicted. [Selection diagram] Fig. 1
