dc.description.abstractIncreasing the security of a software system by decreasing the number of its vulnerabilities has been a major objective of any organization. Therefore, it is important to identify a measure that indicates the security level of the software system. This paper presents a scoring method to measure the security posture of a software system. This novel scoring method for Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE)s considers semantic information in order to increase the accuracy of the score and provides a better outlook of the security posture of a software system using full automation.en
