Solution Overview

Problem

Existing systems lack efficient and secure methods for capturing and distributing sensitive cybersecurity information, particularly vulnerability data, without compromising the integrity of the entity.

Innovation Solution

A computer system comprising a dashboard engine, remediation engine, and report generator engine, which generates dashboards, tracks vulnerability remediation, and controls the dissemination of security reports, using a server device with modules like TTP library, workbench, dashboard, remediation/validation, and report generator engines, ensuring secure access and management.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Productivity

If security information is distributed widely to enable vulnerability remediation, then productivity in addressing security issues is improved, but reliability of maintaining entity integrity deteriorates due to potential exposure of sensitive vulnerability data

Engineering Contradiction:

Improvevulnerability remediation efficiencyVSAvoidentity integrity

Core Design Contradiction:

ProductivityVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The system segments security information into different types (vulnerability data, remediation status, security metrics) and distributes them to different authorized users and systems through controlled interfaces. This allows remediation teams to access necessary information while preventing unauthorized exposure of sensitive vulnerability details that could compromise entity integrity.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The security information system acts as an intermediary between vulnerability detection (red team activities) and remediation processes. It controls the flow and distribution of security information, enabling productive remediation while maintaining entity integrity through authorized access mechanisms and controlled dissemination of sensitive data.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Measurement precision

If comprehensive security monitoring is implemented to capture all vulnerability data, then measurement precision of security status is improved, but device complexity of the security system increases

Engineering Contradiction:

Improvesecurity status monitoring accuracyVSAvoidsecurity system structure

Core Design Contradiction:

Measurement precisionVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The security information system is designed as a multi-functional platform that consolidates dashboard generation, vulnerability tracking, remediation monitoring, and report distribution into a single integrated system. This universal approach achieves comprehensive security monitoring with high measurement precision while reducing overall system complexity compared to multiple separate tools.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

Solution Approach 2:

The system merges previously separate security functions (vulnerability scanning, dashboard creation, remediation tracking, report generation) into a unified security information platform. This consolidation achieves comprehensive monitoring capability while simplifying system architecture and reducing the complexity of managing multiple discrete security tools.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #5Merging (Combining)

3Loss of information

If detailed security reports are generated and distributed, then loss of information regarding vulnerabilities is reduced, but object-generated harmful factors increase due to potential misuse of vulnerability data by unauthorized parties

Engineering Contradiction:

Improvevulnerability data completenessVSAvoidsecurity risk from data exposure

Core Design Contradiction:

Loss of informationVSObject-generated harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The system applies local quality by providing different levels of security information detail to different authorized users based on their roles and needs. Sensitive vulnerability data is selectively disclosed only to authorized remediation personnel while preventing broader distribution, thus maintaining information completeness for remediation while minimizing harmful exposure risks.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #3Local quality

Solution Approach 2:

The system implements preliminary anti-action by establishing controlled distribution mechanisms and access restrictions before security reports are generated and shared. This prevents potential misuse of vulnerability data by unauthorized parties while ensuring that necessary information reaches authorized remediation teams, thus counteracting potential harmful effects before they can occur.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #9Preliminary anti-action

AI summary

An example computer system for capturing security information can include: one or more processors; and non-transitory computer-readable storage media encoding instructions which, when executed by the one or more processors, causes the computer system to create: a dashboard engine programmed to generate a dashboard with the security information thereon; a remediation engine programmed to track remediation of one or more security vulnerabilities; and a report generator engine programmed to generate a report including the security information and the one or more security vulnerabilities, wherein dissemination of the report is controlled.
