`ABSTRACT
`
`A system, method, and computer program product are pro(cid:173)
`vided for a database associating a plurality of device vulner(cid:173)
`abilities to which computing devices can be subject with a
`plurality ofremediation
`techniques that collectively remedi(cid:173)
`ate the plurality of device vulnerabilities. Each of the device
`vulnerabilities is associated with at least one remediation
`technique. Each remediation technique associated with a par(cid:173)
`ticular device vulnerability remediates that particular vulner(cid:173)
`ability. Further, each remediation technique has a remediation
`type are selected from the type group consisting of patch,
`policy setting, and configuration option. Still yet, a first one of
`the device vulnerabilities is associated with at least two alter(cid:173)
`native remediation techniques.
