Dynamic preview of security vulnerability levels in a managed network

A system, comprising:

• a processor;
• and
• a memory, accessible by the processor and storing instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to perform operations comprising:
• receiving, from a client device associated with a managed network, an indication of selected factors from a plurality of factors stored in a database and associated with vulnerabilities experienced by the managed network and respective weights for each of the selected factors;
• obtaining, from the selected factors, one or more combinations of the selected factors that total less than a maximum number of combinations;
• determining a duplicate count comprising a number of duplicate combinations within the one or more combinations of the selected factors, wherein the duplicate count is bounded by a highest integer multiple of the one or more combinations of selected factors that totals less than the maximum number of combinations;
• generating, for display on a graphical user interface of the client device, data representing the one or more combinations of the selected factors duplicated according to the duplicate count, and a respective risk score based on a weighted average of the respective weights applied to the selected factors;
• transmitting, to the client device, the data;
• receiving, from the client device, updated selected factors from the plurality of factors and respective weights for the updated selected factors;
• generating, for display on the graphical user interface of the client device, updated data representing updated respective risk scores based on the updated selected factors and the respective weights for the updated selected factors;
• and
• transmitting, to the client device, the updated data.

A tangible, non-transitory, computer readable medium storing instructions that, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to perform operations comprising:

• receiving, from a client device associated with a managed network, an indication of selected factors from a plurality of factors associated with vulnerabilities experienced by the managed network and respective weights for each of the selected factors;
• obtaining, from the selected factors, one or more combinations of the selected factors that total less than a maximum number of combinations;
• determining a duplicate count comprising a number of duplicate combinations within the one or more combinations of the selected factors, wherein the number of duplicate combinations is bounded by a highest integer multiple of the combinations of selected factors that totals less than the maximum number of combinations;
• generating, for display on a graphical user interface of the client device, data representing the one or more combinations of the selected factors duplicated according to the duplicate count, and a respective risk score based on a weighted average of the respective weights applied to the selected factors;
• transmitting, to the client device, the data;
• receiving, from the client device, updated selected factors from the plurality of factors and respective weights for the updated selected factors;
• generating, for display on the graphical user interface of the client device, updated data representing updated respective risk scores based on the updated selected factors and the respective weights for the updated selected factors;
• and
• transmitting, to the client device, the updated data.
