A server system sends, via a linearly ordered communication orbit, to computational machines at a first subset of nodes in a computer network, a set of local environment verification tests and a set of mappings that map results of the local environment verification tests into a set of risk scores. Requests sent by the server system cause the computational machines at the plurality of nodes to: locally evaluate the set of local environment verification tests to produce test results, and locally map the test results using the set of mappings into a set of risk scores. Queries sent by the server cause the computational machines at the plurality of nodes to return to the server system at least a portion of the test results and risk scores. The server, identifies, based on the received test results and risk scores, computational machines and/or control categories having risk scores satisfying predefined criteria.

Risk scoring based on compliance verification test results in a local network

A local environment verification method, performed by a server of a computer network, includes injecting, into a linear communication orbit, a bundle of information items regarding deployment of a respective local environment verification framework at each of a first subset of nodes in the computer network. The bundle of information items is distributed to a respective node of the first subset of nodes through the linear communication orbit, and used to establish the respective local environment verification framework at the respective node of the first subset of nodes. The respective node of the first subset of nodes is configured to perform a set of local environment verifications using the respective local environment verification framework. The method further includes injecting, into the linear communication orbit, a query message to collect respective local results of the set of local environment verifications from the first subset of nodes.
