摘要:Cyber security is one of the fundamental research areas of software engineering. The systems that make up today's information systems infrastructure have been developed largely with software support. Security vulnerabilities in the software used in these systems may cause undesirable results. It is very important to manage software vulnerabilities correctly. In addition, an effective communication mechanism and certain standards should be established among those working in this field. The importance of the subject has been understood in recent years and the studies in this area have gradually increased. The use of machine learning algorithms is increasing in recent studies in this area. Although there is a large data set accumulated in vulnerability databases, there is often the problem of unstructured data. Vulnerability databases and security reports are created in natural language that people can understand and interpret. These reports are difficult to read and understand by machines. Our study focuses on the difficulties of this unstructured and natural language system. In order to investigate this problem, firstly, up-to-date and accessible databases used in scientific research were examined and evaluated. Then, a three-stage security framework was proposed, consisting of the use of vulnerabilities by machines to assist experts from the notification stage to the reporting stage. The rules and flow charts of each stage are defined. In order to increase the usability of different databases in their own systems, the framework rules are defined as a guideline containing flexible directions, not rigid items. The point of consideration is not the methods and tools used, but the definition of outputs as common and similar attributes.
