Abstract
Methods and systems are provide for assessing the cybersecurity state of entities based on extended-computer network characteristics. A method can include obtaining, for a plurality of computer networks associated with an entity and not associated with the entity, a first and second network dataset. The first and second network datasets can be combined. A plurality of Internet Protocol (IP) addresses associated with the entity and associated with a plurality of entities can be obtained, where the entity and the plurality of entities each associated with a unique identifier (UID). The method can include determining whether each of the plurality of computer networks not associated with the entity comprises a remote office network. A cybersecurity state of the entity can be determined based on an evaluation of security characteristics of the IP addresses associated with the entity and of one or more IP addresses attributed to the remote office networks.
