An outline of the method for predicting IT vulnerabilities

Majority of the currently known quantitative models for vulnerability analysis do not allow for a comprehensive vulnerability prediction process for a selected software. The article presents the outline of the method for predicting software vulnerabilities. The presented solution is based on probabilistic properties that allow to reflect external and internal factors affecting software and determining its vulnerabilities. Also, a possible direction of further method development was described, indicating the way of improving the method with elements representing preventive measures, as a result of which it may be possible to limit or eliminate potential software vulnerabilities.
