Abstract
Examples described herein provide for a system that evaluates a security level of a network system. Additionally, examples described herein evaluate a security level of a network system in order to enable a determination of components that can be used to enhance the security level of the network system.
Claims1
A method for evaluating the security level of a network system, the method being implemented by one or more processors and comprising:
- identifying a plurality of security elements of the network system;
- determining a security architecture of the network system based on the identified plurality of security elements;
- wherein determining the security architecture includes implementing a security model that identifies a plurality of pre-determined relationships as between individual security elements in the plurality of security elements, in connection with possible types of threats to the network system and one or more types of assets that can be exposed as a result of a breach;
- evaluating the security architecture to determine an evaluation for the network system;
- and
- outputting the evaluation for a user.
