  • MODEL BASED METHODOLOGY FOR TRANSLATING HIGH-LEVEL CYBER THREAT DESCRIPTIONS INTO SYSTEM-SPECIFIC ACTIONABLE DEFENSE TACTICS
    Publication number: 20230254335
    Abstract: A method, apparatus, and system provide the ability to act on cyber risks and reduce cyber attacks. System characteristics and system information for a cyber system are gathered. The system characteristics and system information are preprocessed to identify vulnerabilities that are relevant to the cyber system. A system model of a cyber environment is generated for the cyber system. One or more features are converted from cyber threat reports to one or more semantically relevant queries over the system model. The system model is reasoned over to generate one or more answers relevant to the one or more semantically relevant queries. Attack models are executed over the system model to generate actionable intelligence and reduce cyber attacks.
