A management platform that allows security and compliance users to view risks and vulnerabilities in their environment with the added context of what other mitigating security countermeasures are associated with that vulnerability and that are applicable and/or available within the overall security architecture. Additionally, the platform allows users to take one or more actions from controlling the operation of a security countermeasure for mitigation purposes to documenting the awareness of a security countermeasure that is in place.

Security countermeasure management platform

A system for controlling selection of filters for protecting against vulnerabilities of a computer network includes a vulnerability management system analyzes the computer network and determines network vulnerabilities for the computer network. The vulnerability management system is configured to receive real-time data on a status of filters protecting against vulnerabilities of the computer network. A database contains a pre-generated mapping of network vulnerabilities to filters for protecting against the network vulnerabilities. The vulnerability management system enables user control of filters for protecting against vulnerabilities of the computer network based upon the determined network vulnerabilities of the computer network, the pre-generated mapping of network vulnerabilities to the filters for protecting against the network vulnerabilities and the real-time data on the status of the filters.
