Claim One:
1. A computer implemented method for detecting security threats over a network, and for performing cyber-security defense by taking remedial action on detected threats, comprising: collecting security information data over the network, from a plurality of appliances and application layers; based on the collected security information data, assessing a risk component of the collected security information and identifying based on pre-determined criteria, one or more security risks from the collected data by performing cognitive cyber-security analytics in an artificial neural network implemented method; and based on the assessed risk component and the identified one or more security risks, triggering a remedial action; wherein the assessing is based on a pre-configured library, a periodic surveying, a periodic change managing, and a periodic reconfiguration; autonomically learning a behavior profile of the plurality of appliances or application layers; and based on the learned behavior profile, autonomically learning of attack profiles and circumvention techniques used to target the network, the appliances and the application layers.
