Abstract: A predictive engine for analyzing existing vulnerability information to determine the likelihood of a vulnerability being exploited by malicious actors against a particular computer or network of computers. The predictive engine relies on multiple data sources providing historical vulnerability information, a plurality of predictive models, and periodic retraining of the prediction ensemble utilizing predictive models. Modeling schemes may also be used when retraining the predictive models forming the prediction ensemble.
