SYSTEM FOR DETECTING AND REMEDIATING COMPUTING SYSTEM BREACHES USING COMPUTING NETWORK TRAFFIC MONITORING

Last updated:

Abstract:

A system is provided for detecting and remediating computing system breaches using computing network traffic monitoring. In particular, the system may identify one or more computing systems within a network as well as relationships between such computing systems to determine a network topology. Based on the network topology, the system may use historical network traffic data associated with the computing systems in the network to generate predicted entry points and lateral pathways of a security breach that may take place within particular computing systems. Then, based on the computing systems affected as well as entry points and path traversals of the breach, the system may generate and/or implement one or more remediation steps to address existing and/or future breaches. In this way, the system may provide an intelligent method of augmenting the security of a computing network.
