Zusammenfassung:A system and method of evaluating one or more cybersecurity vulnerabilities to establish a priority metric for each of the one or more cybersecurity vulnerabilities, the method including: constructing a cybersecurity attack schema for each of the one or more cybersecurity vulnerabilities; determining, for each of the plurality of malicious actions of each of the one or more cybersecurity vulnerabilities, one or more resource metrics; obtaining, for each of the one or more cybersecurity vulnerabilities, one or more final resource metrics based on evaluating each of the one or more resource metrics; obtaining, for each of the one or more cybersecurity vulnerabilities, an impact metric that is indicative of a degree of damage that can be caused by the cybersecurity vulnerability; and calculating, for each of the one or more cybersecurity vulnerabilities, a cybersecurity priority level based on the impact metric and the one or more final resource metrics.
