TECHNIQUES FOR CLOUD DETECTION AND RESPONSE FROM CLOUD LOGS UTILIZING A SECURITY GRAPH

A system and method for detecting a cloud detection and response (CDR) event from a cloud log. The method includes detecting an identifier of a cloud entity in a cloud log, wherein the cloud log includes a plurality of records generated by a cloud computing environment; detecting a node in a security graph based on the identifier of the cloud entity, wherein the security graph includes a representation of the cloud computing environment; generating a CDR event in response to determining from the security graph that the first node is associated with a cybersecurity threat; and initiating a mitigation action based on the cybersecurity threat.
