SAVE - An automated vulnerability assessment tool

The standard vulnerability assessment model, COVART, can only be used in conjunction with input data files that describe the interactions between thousands of shotlines and the components making up the target. Creating these files is extremely timeand resource-intensive, severely limiting the analyst's ability to produce high-fidelity COVART analyses during the critical early stages of design evolution. McDonnell Douglas, in conjunction with Fortesque Corporation, has developed an alternative methodology that produces COVART shotline input data files directly from CAD design drawing databases, thus providing quick-turnaround vulnerability assessment capability that enables the vulnerability analyst to become a full player in Integrated Product Teams for new designs.
