Abstract
The present invention relates to a method and a framework that automatically and dynamically derives a misuseability score for every IT component (e.g., PC, laptop, server, router, smartphone, and user or any other element that can be connected to organization network or to the internet). The dynamic framework of the present invention supports the risk analysis process. The misuseability score encapsulates the potential damage that can be caused to the organization in case that an asset is compromised and misused, for example, as part of a cyber-attack.
