US Patent 11516670 Security system for vulnerability-risk-threat (VRT) detection

The technology includes a method performed by a security system of a 5G network to protect against a cyberattack. The system can instantiate a function to monitor and control incoming network traffic at a perimeter of the 5G network in accordance with a security model that is based on a vulnerability parameter, a risk parameter, and a threat parameter. The system can process the incoming network traffic with the security model to output a vulnerability-risk-threat (VRT) score that characterizes the incoming network traffic in relation to the vulnerability parameter, the risk parameter, and the threat parameter, and causes one or more actions based on the VRT score to mitigate the cyberattack. The action(s) can include blocking the incoming network traffic at the perimeter of the 5G network.
