Zusammenfassung:The present invention generally relates to a context-aware security self-assessment method or module that determines the context in which the device is used and based on this, assesses the devices security settings. The context may refer to the system environment, the applications the device is used for, and/or the current life-cycle stage of the device, without being limited to said contexts. The method of the present invention preferably prioritizes and rates the security relevant findings and presents them in combination with mitigation options through a web interface, a configuration tool, or through notifications in the control system.
