Abstract:
Techniques and mechanisms for identifying unmanaged cloud resources with endpoint and network logs and attributing the identified cloud resources to an entity of an enterprise that owns the cloud resources. The process collects data from sources, e.g., endpoint and network logs, with respect to traffic in a computer network and based at least in part on the data, extracts relationships related to the traffic. The process applies rules to the relationships to extract destinations in the computer network that provide cloud resources in a cloud environment, wherein the cloud resources are owned by an enterprise. One or more users or business entities of the enterprise are identified as accessing the cloud resources.
