1. A system, comprising:
one or more processors;
a memory; and
one or more programs stored in the memory, the one or more programs comprising instructions configured to:
receive a request to perform an asset vulnerability assessment of one or more assets within a network, the request comprising:
an asset descriptor describing the one or more assets; and
in response to the request:
obtain, based on the asset descriptor, aggregated asset property data associated with the one or more assets, wherein the aggregated asset property data is collected for the one or more assets in one or more levels of the network;
perform the asset vulnerability assessment based on the aggregated asset property data and asset vulnerability signature data stored in an asset vulnerability signature repository;
determine vulnerability for an asset in a level based on a comparison of one or more portions of the aggregated asset property data to one or more portions of the asset vulnerability signature data; and
in response to determining that the asset vulnerability assessment satisfies a defined criterion, perform one or more actions associated with the network.
