Zusammenfassung: | A method, apparatus and product for assessing security threats from lateral movements and mitigation thereof. The method comprising statically analyzing the network to determine for each asset of a list of assets in a network, potential network lateral movements therefrom to other assets; dynamically analyzing the network to validate each potential network lateral movement identified by the static analysis; generating a graph of network lateral movements, wherein the graph comprises nodes and directed edges, wherein a node of the graph represents an asset of the list of assets, wherein a direct edge of the graph connecting a source node to a target node represents a validated network lateral movement from a source asset, represented by the source node, to a target asset, represented by the target node; and utilizing the graph of network lateral movements to assess security risk to the network. |
