Abstract:
A method for a computer system includes receiving a topology of a network including a server location and a threat server at a threat server location, determining a vulnerability security risk for the server location, determining remediation actions including a first action and a second action in response to the vulnerability, determining updated security risks associated with the server location including an first updated security risk for a first action and a second updated security risk for, and displaying a prioritized list of remediation actions on the display, wherein the first remediation action is prioritized over the second remediation action when the first updated security risk value with respect to the security risk value shows a greater improvement in risk than the second updated security risk value with respect to the security risk value.
