Everything has tradeoffs, whether you’re sacrificing operational complexity for network simplicity or trading application control for flexibility. The upside of accepting that there is no perfect network design is that you are now free to pick and choose the architectures and workflow that best fit ...
. Leveraging these empirical findings, we demonstrate how a more principled approach to data collection and model design, based on realistic settings of vulnerability prediction, can lead to better solutions. The resulting tools perform significantly better than the studied baseline: up to 33.57% ...
