Abstract

System and method to identify a security entity in a computing environment is disclosed. Communication between a user computer and at least one destination computer by a security appliance is monitored by a security appliance. Selective information from the communication is extracted by the security appliance. At least one security entity is identified based on a subset of the selective information. One or more selective information is associated to at least one security entity. A knowledge graph is generated based on the associated selective information.
