ADVANCED RISK EVALUATION FOR SERVERS

Abstract:

Disclosed is a computer-implemented method for analyzing server for security vulnerabilities. The method includes selecting a first server from a plurality of servers, wherein the first sever includes a plurality of accounts. The method includes identifying, by a password vulnerability scanner, weak accounts in the plurality of accounts including a first weak account. The method includes determining, by a user risk engine, a user risk score for a user associated with the weak account. The method includes determining, by a server risk engine, a server risk score for the first server, wherein the server risk score is based on a set of server factors and a set of data factors. The method includes generating, by a smart risk scorer, an overall risk score for the first server. The method includes categorizing, based on the overall risk score of the first sever, a risk level for the first server.
