Abstract
Companies that use a variety of software use patch management systems provided by security vendor to manage security vulnerabilities of software to improve security. System administrators monitor the vendor sites that provide new patch information to maintain the latest software versions, but it takes a lot of cost and monitoring time to find and collect patch information because the patch cycle is irregular and the structure of web page is different. In order to reduce this, studies to automate patch information collection based on keyword or web service have been conducted, but since the structure to provide patch information in vendor site is not standardized, it was applicable only to specific vendor site. In this paper, we propose a system that automates the collection of patch information by analyzing the structure and characteristics of the vendor site providing patch information and using web crawler to reduce the cost and monitoring time consumed in collecting patch information.
