System and method to monitor and manage imperfect or compromised software

A method of increasing integrity associated with a computer network, which includes determining a model operational parameter associated with an application operating at a predetermined integrity level on the computer network, the model operational parameter is associated with operation of a layer above the agent layer as the application operates at the predetermined integrity level and interacts with the layer above the agent layer, generating an operational model associated with the application performing at the predetermined integrity level, detecting a current operational parameter associated with the application operating at a current integrity level on the computer network, determining an exception associated with the operational model based on a comparison between the model operational parameter and the current operational parameter, and generating an instruction from the agent layer to resolve the exception, thereby increasing integrity of the computer network. A corresponding system and computer-readable device are also disclosed.
