Abstract: Various embodiments of the present technology include methods of assessing risk of a cyber security failure in a computer network of an entity. Some embodiments involve using continual or periodic data collecting to improve inferential analysis, as well as obtaining circumstantial or inferential information from social networks. Machine learning may be used to improve predicitive capabilities. Some embodiments allow for identification of an entity from circumstantial or inferential information based on the machine learning and comparative analyses.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present technology relate to cyber attack vulnerability analyses. In one embodiment, a method includes determining an external infrastructure of an entity, the external infrastructure including one or more cyber assets utilized by the entity, collecting infrastructure information regarding the one or more cyber assets, performing passive cyber security vulnerability testing on the one or more cyber assets using the collected infrastructure information, and assessing cyber security vulnerabilities of the one or more cyber assets. The method may further include calculating an association score for the one or more cyber assets based on the assessed cyber security vulnerabilities, and automatically recommending, based on the association score, computer network changes to reduce the cyber security vulnerabilities.
