A Network Security Risk Computation Approach Based on Attack Graphs

Abstract:

At present, with the rapid development of computer technology and network communication technology, and the Internet computer network application is increasingly wide and deep. Explore the scientific, reasonable and practical calculation method of the network security risk has become a hotspot in the research of network security, and a lot of research results have been reached. But because of the complexity of the network security risk calculation, there are still many challenges. Based on the shortcomings of the traditional network security risk calculation method, this paper mainly studies network security risk calculation method based on attack graph.
