Abstract:
A system includes a memory that stores computer executable components and neural network data, and a processor executes computer executable components stored in the memory. An assessment component assesses a computer network, and classifies the computer network relative to M network classifications stored in a repository, wherein M is an integer greater than one. A risk component determines risk of vulnerability subject to change impact regarding protection against a computer virus or cyber-attack based on historical information regarding vulnerability exposure and vulnerability remediation changes relative to the classification of the computer network. A recommendation component that generates recommendations and best action to mitigate risk and impact, and remediate the vulnerabilities based on the risk assessment and business priorities.
