Abstract
In one embodiment, a method for assessing security posture for entities in a computing network is implemented on a computing device and includes: receiving behavior data from one or more of the entities, where the behavior data is associated with at least activity on the computing network by the one or more entities, calculating a risk score for at least one of the entities by comparing the behavior data with a classification model, where the classification model represents at least a baseline for normative network behavior by the entities in a computing network, assessing a security posture for the at least one the entities based on the risk score, and allocating network security resources to the at least one of the entities at least in accordance with the security posture.
