Abstract:
Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for determining a network path between computer assets. One of the methods includes receiving an asset topology that includes an identifier for each computer-related asset that may be an entry point for an attack simulation, receiving threat data that identifies vulnerabilities of computer-related assets, determining a first computer-related asset that may be an entry point for an attack simulation, identifying one or more first vulnerabilities of the first computer-related asset, determining a path from the first computer-related asset to a second computer-related asset, determining one or more second vulnerabilities of the second computer-related asset, determining a probability that the second computer-related asset will be compromised by an adversary, and determining a change to the asset topology to reduce the probability that the second computer-related asset will be compromised by an adversary.

Claim (Index 23):
A computer-implemented method comprising:\n identifying, using threat data that identifies vulnerabilities of computer-related assets, one or more first vulnerabilities of a first computer-related asset that is a) identified by an asset topology that i) identifies an entity's computer-related assets including one or more first computer-related assets each of which is a potential entry point for an attack simulation and one or more second computer-related assets each of which is not a potential entry point for an attack simulation, and ii) how the computer-related assets are connected together and b) one of the first computer-related assets; in response to identifying the one or more first vulnerabilities of the first computer-related asset, determining, using the one or more first vulnerabilities, that a first probability that the first computer-related asset will be compromised by an adversary's device satisfies a threshold probability; in response to determining that the first probability that the first computer-related asset will be compromised by an adversary's device satisfies the threshold probability, determining, using the asset topology, a path from the first computer-related asset to a second computer-related asset that is one of the second computer-related assets identified by the asset topology; in response to determining the path from the first computer-related asset to the second computer-related asset, determining, using the threat data, one or more second vulnerabilities of the second computer-related asset; in response to determining the one or more second vulnerabilities of the second computer-related asset, determining, using the one or more second vulnerabilities of the second computer-related asset, a second probability that the second computer-related asset will be compromised by an adversary's device; in response to determining the second probability that the second computer-related asset will be compromised by an adversary's device, determining, using the asset topology and the threat data, a change to the asset topology to reduce the second probability that the second computer-related asset will be compromised by an adversary's device; and in response to determining the change to the asset topology to reduce the second probability that the second computer-related asset will be compromised by an adversary's device, implementing the change to the asset topology.
