Abstract:
The present disclosure generally relates to systems, methods, and computer-readable media for identifying instances of vulnerabilities on a computing network and generating a graph representing pathways that an attacking entity may take with respect to accessing one or more sensitive assets. For example, one or more systems disclosed herein collect network information and vulnerability information to generate a graph including nodes and edges representing at least a portion of the computing network associated with different vulnerabilities. The systems described herein may use graph theory to generate or otherwise identify pathways that an attacker is likely to use in accessing the sensitive asset(s). The systems additionally may further evaluate the pathways and associated likelihoods/risks to intelligently select one or more action items associated with a reduction of risk to the networking system.
