Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) Each organization needs to manage its IT assets and related vulnerabilities in order to maintain its security level. Nevertheless, it is a considerable burden for organizations to do that since their resources are limited. This paper introduces a system that monitors organizations' internal IT assets and their related vulnerability information. The system streamlines the operations within each organization. In the system, an agent module installed on each IT asset sends information to a server, while the server monitors the network to collect information on the IT assets that does not run agent module. The server then converts the information into identifiers, which are used to query open vulnerability information. The system provides an alert in case vulnerability information pertaining to the IT asset of the organization is identified. This paper also introduces a prototype system, with which we discuss the issues to be solved as our future work.
