Outline of Final Research Achievements

In this study, we proposed a technique that links online databases with different format, with which we introduced a technique that automates vulnerability management operations inside an organization. In particular, we constructed a technique that discovers and links various information with different format, a technique that derives a unique identifier for each of the assets installed inside terminals, a technique that locates vulnerability notes relevant to the assets, and a technique that changes configuration of network switches on the Intranet based on the severity of the vulnerability. With these techniques, we demonstrated the feasibility of automating the maintenance of asset information list, detection of vulnerabilities, and automated initial countermeasures.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

サイバースペースが社会的インフラになった今日では、サイバーセキュリティの担保はすべての組織、また個人にとって、必要不可欠である。しかしながら、必要なオペレーションをすべての組織で実施するには人的リソースに課題があり、自動化することが求められている。特に、本研究では、脆弱性管理というセキュリティオペレーションの一つに着目し、その自動化の実現可能性を示すことに成功した。
