Abstract:
Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for identifying network security risks. One of the methods includes receiving organizational hierarchy data and receiving access privilege data for a network, generating an adjacency matrix that represents connections between individuals within the organizational hierarchy and various groups, and that represents connections between the individuals and various access privileges, selecting an analytic technique for analyzing the adjacency matrix, determining, for each individual, an individual score that represents a security risk associated with the individual's network account, and in response to determining that the individual score meets a threshold, applying security controls.

Claim (Index 21):
A method for identifying network security risks, the method comprising:\n receiving organization data that represents a plurality of individuals in an organizational hierarchy of an organization, wherein the organization data includes data that indicates, for each individual of the plurality of individuals, one or more groups to which the individual belongs; for at least one of the groups, determining a group score that represents a criticality of the group within the organization; receiving access privilege data that indicates, for each individual of the plurality of individuals, one or more access privileges that have been assigned to the individual for network resources; for at least one of the access privileges, determining an access privilege score that represents an access privilege risk associated with potential misuse of the access privilege; generating an adjacency matrix that represents connections between the plurality of individuals and the one or more groups, and that represents connections between the plurality of individuals and the one or more access privileges, wherein a connection between an individual and the at least one of the groups is associated with the determined group score, and a connection between the individual and the at least one of the access privileges is associated with the determined access privilege score; based on applying a selected analytic technique for analyzing the adjacency matrix, for each individual of the plurality of individuals, determining an individual score that represents a security risk associated with a network account of the individual; in response to determining, for a particular individual, that the individual score meets a predetermined threshold, automatically applying, by a security control processor, one or more security controls to a computing device associated with the particular individual, wherein applying the one or more security controls includes providing security data that enables security of the computing device.
