A method, apparatus and computer program product for managing security threats to a distributed network.

Each of the set of security threats is represented as a three dimensional graphical object in a three dimensional (3D) representation of the network according to the respective magnitude of the characteristic. A security action is taken based on the determined magnitude of one of the set of security threats.
