Aper a novel approach to national-level cyber risk assessment based on vulnerability management and threat intelligence

Abstract

Real-time assessment of IT-related risks, performed at the national level, is very important due to the evolving nature of threats that may originate from individual hackers, organized cyber-criminal groups, as well as state activities. Evaluation of risk that is based on technical information, as well as on mutual relationships between various institutions and services, may result in very valuable situational awareness. The paper describes (in general) cyber risk analysis method which will be implemented in Polish National Cybersecurity Platform.
