  • Publication number: 20110321164
    Abstract: A method and system for adaptive vulnerability scanning (AVS) of an application is provided. The adaptive vulnerability scanning of an application assists in identifying new vulnerabilities dynamically. The endpoints of an application are scanned using a predefined set of rules. Subsequently, one or more possible vulnerabilities are presented. The vulnerabilities are analyzed and predefined rules are modified. The steps of scanning the application and modification of rules are iteratively repeated till the adaptive vulnerability scanning capability is achieved. A neural network is used for training the adaptive vulnerability scanner. This neural network is made to learn some rules based on predefined set of rules while undergoing the training phase. At least one weight in neural networks is altered while imparting the self learning capability.
