Identifying attributes of aggregated data
First Claim
1. A method for identifying attributes of a portion of aggregated software security data comprising:
- accessing a text string from aggregated data retrieved from a plurality of on-line sources;
searching a portion of said text string for an exact match to a particular attribute;
searching said text string for one or more partial matches associated with said particular attribute; and
associating said text string with said particular attribute based on said exact match or one or more of said partial matches.

Abstract
A method for identifying a portion of aggregated software security data is described. The method includes accessing aggregated data associated with software vulnerabilities retrieved from a plurality of on-line sources. The method further includes searching a portion of the aggregated data for an exact match to a particular attribute of the data and searching the portion of the aggregated data for one or more partial matches associated with the particular attribute. The method also includes associating the portion of the data with the particular attribute based on the exact match of one or more of the partial matches.
