The present design is directed to a cognitive system including a receiver configured to receive a set of actors and associated actor information and receive assets and their associated asset information, a creation apparatus configured to create data dictionary entries for a taxonomy based on the set of actors and the assets and create a cognitive model using the data dictionary entries for a time period, and a computing apparatus configured to compute trust of the cognitive model as a fuzzy number and activate the cognitive model if trust of the cognitive model is above a cognitive model trust threshold. When the cognitive model is activated, the cognitive modeling system is configured to schedule a collection of tasks to run that perform regular extraction of actions from an original data source and perform at least one anomaly analysis associated with the cognitive model.
