Abstract

See full text

Network devices such as intrusion detection systems, routers, firewalls, servers, and other network devices are monitored to aggregate all event data generated by monitored devices to provide a threat ranking of all network activity. A threat level for a given host is determined by a threat weighting assigned to that host and a threat weighting assigned to that host's netblock. In addition, a vulnerability for a given event is determined by the event's destination threat associated with a vulnerability value indexed by the event's destination and the event's type.
