System and method for creating a data protection map and remediating vulnerabilities

Abstract

Systems and methods for remediating vulnerabilities on a plurality of computing devices is disclosed herein. In one exemplary aspect, a method comprises classifying monitored data into a plurality of categories using a machine learning algorithm. For each respective data file of the monitored data, the method comprises retrieving one or more policies associated with a classified category of the respective data file and determining whether respective data file complies with the one or more policies. The method further comprises generating a compliance map based on compliance with policies for each respective data file of the monitored data, wherein the compliance map indicates vulnerabilities in the plurality of computing devices, determining whether the vulnerabilities are actionable, and in response to determining the vulnerabilities are actionable, requesting actions to be performed on the plurality of devices to remediate the vulnerabilities and non-compliance.
