Abstract
Systems and/or methods include obtaining device information for devices within a network and determining a business function for each of the devices. The systems and/or methods further include assigning a criticality score to each of the devices based on the determined business function and generating a report for the devices based on the determined business function and the assigned criticality score.
Claims21
