Abstract
Methods and systems for assessing and evaluating vulnerabilities of a networked system are presented. A list of known vulnerabilities that have been disclosed in the public may be obtained. The networked system may be scanned from an external perspective to obtain network information of the networked system. A subset of the known vulnerabilities may be determined to be relevant to the networked system based on correlations between the vulnerabilities and the network information. The networked system may also be analyzed from an internal perspective to determine impacts of the relevant known vulnerabilities to the networked system. The impact of a vulnerability may be determined based on the type of data and/or the type of services that may be accessible in an attack that exploits the vulnerability. The vulnerabilities may then be ranked and addressed based on the impacts.
