Abstract
Systems and methods for risk assessment of a computer network are described. In one embodiment a first static risk score corresponding to a first computing device is computed. A connectivity map corresponding to the first computing device is determined. Communication performed by the first computing device via the connectivity map is analyzed, and a first dynamic risk score corresponding to the first computing device is computed. The first static risk score and the first dynamic risk score are combined to generate a first total risk score for the first computing device. A second total risk score for a second computing device is determined. The first total risk score and the second total risk score are aggregated into an aggregate risk score. A risk assessment of the computer network is determined based on the aggregate risk score.
