A Study on Web Vulnerability Risk Assessment Model Based on Attack Results: Focused on Cyber Kill Chain

Abstract
Common web services have been continuously targeted by hackers due to an access control policy that must be allowed to an unspecified number of people. In order to cope with this situation, companies regularly check web vulnerabilities and take measures according to the risk of discovered vulnerabilities. The risk of these web vulnerabilities is calculated through preliminary statistics and self-evaluation of domestic and foreign related organizations. However, unlike static diagnosis such as security setting and source code, web vulnerability check is performed through dynamic diagnosis. Even with the same vulnerability item, various attack results can be derived, and the degree of risk may vary depending on the subject of diagnosis and the environment. In this respect, the predefined risk level may be different from that of the actual vulnerability. In this paper, to improve this point, we present a web vulnerability risk assessment model based on the attack result centering on the cyber kill chain.
