METHOD FOR AUTOMATED TESTING OF SOFTWARE AND HARDWARE SYSTEMS AND COMPLEXES Russian patent published in 2020 - IPC G06F21/57 G06F11/36 G06F17/50 

FIELD: calculating; counting.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to computer engineering. Technical result is achieved by a method of testing a system of software and hardware by an automated design system, in which modules of an automated design system: obtaining a formalized description of the architecture of the tested system and constructing a use model which includes: type of use of the system, a system element, a method for realizing said use; obtaining from a threat base a formalized description of known threats for systems similar to the tested one and constructing a threat model of the same type as the use model which includes: a threat type, a system element, a method for realizing a threat, a vector of effecting the system; comparing threat model with use model; detecting means of the tested system, which are vulnerable: to the type of unauthorized use of the system, to the method of realizing the threat, to the vector of action on the system.

EFFECT: technical result consists in providing detection of vulnerable software and hardware in the process of automated testing of a system of software and hardware.
