More Information
Summary:Disclosed are systems and methods for repairing vulnerabilities of smart devices connected to a data network. An example method includes: transmitting a request through the network to obtain access to a smart device; obtaining settings of the smart device by accessing a configuration file containing settings of the smart device; comparing each of the settings of the device with known vulnerabilities to identify a vulnerability of the smart device that can be exploited; determining a repair action for repairing the at least one network vulnerability associated with at least one setting of the smart device based on the setting with the similar vulnerable status in the database; and transmitting instructions to the smart device to perform the repair action wherein the repair action comprises adjusting the setting of the smart device by making changes in the configuration file.
