Detect and visualize vulnerable systems using active vulnerability scans

Abstract

Cyber Threat Intelligence helps organisations to improve their security and protect against threats and attacks. The main basis of CTI is the collection and management of information. However, it is really hard to manage all this information separately, so that is why Threat Intelligence platforms are used. Vulnerability scanning is also a technique usually used in cyber security, that allows organisations to know their weak points. In this thesis both concepts are put together, creating an extension for threat intelligence platform YETI that allows to import, visualise and manage scan reports exported from vulnerability scanner OpenVAS.
