Abstract

The disclosed technology can acquire a first set of data from a first group of data sources including a plurality of network components within an energy delivery network. A first metric indicating a likelihood that a particular network component, from the plurality of network components, is affected by cyber vulnerabilities can be generated based on the first set of data. A second set of data can be acquired from a second group of data sources including a collection of services associated with the energy delivery network. A second metric indicating a calculated impact on at least a portion of the energy delivery network when the cyber vulnerabilities affect the particular network component can be generated based on the second set of data. A third metric indicating an overall level of cybersecurity risk associated with the particular network component can be generated based on the first metric and the second metric.
