Abstract: A system and method for generating and representing a consolidated resolution tree of a network are provided. The method includes receiving a target fully qualified domain name (FQDN); creating at least one tentative equivalence class (TEC) containing all the internet root domain name servers (DNS); processing the at least one TEC to determine respective consolidated edges and vertices; retrieving nameservers from domain registration records; determining whether additional TECs are to be generated for the retrieved nameserver(s); processing all new TECs to determine respective consolidated edges and vertices, when it is determined that new TECs are to be generated; and generating a resolution tree for display based on the consolidated edges and vertices.

Abstract: A computerized system for detecting connections in a network, including one or more data collectors configured to collect connection data from the network, one or more connection analyzers configured to analyze the connection data and extract connection dependencies, which include a connecting resource that depends on the existence of a connected resource and a connection type, a connection table that stores the connection dependencies, an interface that is configured to provide access to the connection table to retrieve a list of connecting resources that depend on accessing a given connected resource.

Abstract: A system and method for generating and representing a communication trust tree of network nodes in a network are provided. The method includes receiving an address of a starting node in a communication tree; collecting, for each node of the communication tree extending from the starting node, a response from at least another node of the communication tree; grouping nodes based on their at least a response, wherein nodes having a same response are grouped into a group, wherein each node communication tree is associated with at least one group; and generating a communication trust tree that comprises a hierarchical tree of the generated groups.
