Abstract

The increasing data infringement is pressuring software organizations to create and maintain secure software. Although, not all assaults can be anticipated or prevented, many can be avoided by eliminating vulnerabilities in software. Security teams must discover a mechanism to understand the interdependence of vulnerabilities after their discovery to identify which security vulnerability pose the greatest risk and demand immediate attention. The limited revenue and the time taken by the software testers put additional pressure to select those with high severity and are being a cause for other severe flaws. Addressing such defects is the main step towards understanding the cause-effect relationship among the vulnerabilities. The present objective is to propose a framework for assessing these interrelationships of various software vulnerabilities by utilizing Fuzzy Decision-making Trial and Evaluation Laboratory (F-DEMATEL). The fuzzy theory assists in the decision mapping, whereas the DEMATEL technique is utilized to illustrate the contextual link between the kinds of vulnerability. The data is validated for software testing company placed in northern India.
