Abstract

A method and system of identifying technical experts for an identified vulnerability is provided. One or more technical experts for each of one or more categories of the vulnerability are identified. Questions are sent to and answers are received from the one or more identified technical experts for each of the one or more categories of vulnerabilities, via a chatbot module. Answers to parameters that are missing for a Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) for the identified vulnerability are determined from the received answers to the parameters. The answers to the parameters are validated and a CVSS score is calculated based on the validated determined answers.
