Andongabo, A. & Gashi, I. (2017). vepRisk - A Web Based Analysis Tool for Public Security Data. 2017 13th European Dependable Computing Conference (EDCC), pp. 135-138. doi: 10.1109/EDCC.2017.30

Abstract

We present vepRisk (Vulnerabilities, Exploits and Patches Risk analysis tool): a web-based tool for analyzing publically available security data. The tool has a backend modules that mine, extract, parse and store data from public repositories of vulnerabilities, exploits and patches; and a frontend web-based application that provides functionality for analyzing the data. The frontend uses shinyR, hence allowing integration with the R statistical analysis package and seamless use of R functions. We also present initial analysis we have done with the tool, and outline the extensions and future development we plan to integrate into the tool in the near future.
