Abstract

A method for simulation aided security event management, the method comprises: generating attack simulation information that comprises multiple simulation data items of at least one data item type out of vulnerability instances data items, attack step data items and attack simulation scope data items; wherein the generating of attack simulation information is responsive to a network model, at least one attack starting point and attack action information; identifying security events in response to a correlation between simulation data items and event data; and prioritizing identified security events.
