Abstract:

With the continuous development of the Internet, the security problems of the Internet are more and more serious. The security situations of the Internet devices and applications have gotten Internet users’ more attentions. This paper puts forward a measurement method of the Internet devices and applications based on the features. Firstly, the features of the Internet devices and applications are extracted. By combining the methods of active detection and passive monitoring, the information of the Internet devices and applications is obtained. Then by analyzing the information of the Internet devices and applications, the paper depicts the vulnerabilities distribution situations of the Internet devices and applications. The paper verifies the method by measuring three different Internet devices and applications, and detects their vulnerabilities distribution situations, which can help the administrators understand the situations of the Internet devices and applications effectively, and find vulnerabilities and repair them in time.

Key words: features extraction, active detection, passive monitoring, security situation
