Abstract
Managing numerous security vulnerabilities has long been a difficult and daunting task especially due to the complexity, heterogeneity, and various operational constraints of the network. In this paper, we focus on the task of mitigating and managing network-device-specific vulnerabilities automatically and intelligently. We achieve the goal by a scalable, interactive, topology-aware framework that can provide mitigation actions at selectively chosen devices. The intuition behind our work is that more and more network devices are becoming security-capable so that they can be collectively used to achieve security goals while satisfying certain network policies.
