 OASIS Application Vulnerability Description Language TC
Assessment tools, for example, could create an AVDL file for a particular application that could be read by attack prevention products to recommend the optimal policy for that specific application.
Today, organizations are actively engaged in a project whereby XML-based vulnerability assessment output will be used to improve the effectiveness of attack prevention, event correlation, and remediation technologies.
When vulnerabilities are corrected, remediation products could also use AVDL to communicate this information back to the attack prevention gateway protecting the site so that its policies could be modified accordingly.
