Abstract
A method for securing a service implemented on a computer network includes identifying network assets in the computer network used by the service. The method further includes identifying vulnerabilities in one or more of the network assets, determining an asset risk score for each of the network assets, and determining a service risk score for the service. The method involves implementing one or more vulnerability remediation actions on the computer network to reduce the service risk score and secure the service.
