Abstract:
A computer system method includes receiving a network topology and associated configuration data, wherein the network topology indicates a host location and a threat location, determining a vulnerability associated with the host location, determining a security exposure for the host location with respect to the threat location from the configuration data, the network topology, and to incomplete configuration data for the host location, determining a first vulnerability certainty for the host location with respect the vulnerability in response to incomplete configuration data, thereafter receiving updated network data selected from a group consisting of: updated configuration data, updated network topology, determining an updated security exposure for the host location with respect to the threat location from the updated network data, and to the incomplete configuration data, and displaying a difference between of the first security exposure and the second security exposure on the display.
