In this paper, we present a new security risk assessment method of website based on generalized fuzzy numbers. First, we present a new similarity measure between generalized fuzzy numbers. We also prove some properties of the proposed similarity measure and make an experiment to use 18 sets of generalized fuzzy numbers to compare the experimental results of the proposed method with the existing...
