Apparatus and methods are provided for graphically defining a real-world cybersecurity protocol of an entity. The graphical platform includes searchable, manipulatable, graphs mapping cybersecurity threats. Manipulating nodes and relationships within the graphs translates into real-time modification of a cybersecurity protocol in effect for the entity. An ability to map known cybersecurity threats and analyze them (even according to known frameworks) may streamline and integrate efforts of cybersecurity defense teams. Graphical representation of a security protocol facilitates proactive threat hunting as well as expediting incident response activities by providing evidence-based pathways to inform impact analysis and source event analysis.
