Abstract

Various embodiments include systems and methods to implement a graph analysis-based assessment to determine relative node significance. Network traffic data associated with a network may be obtained. A graph analysis-based assessment of the network may be performed to determine network traffic paths between a plurality of nodes in the network based at least in part on the network traffic data and to calculate, for each node and based at least in part on the network traffic paths, a respective centrality value. The respective centrality value may be indicative of a respective node being a potential source of disruption to the network relative to other nodes. At least one significant node in the network may be identified based at least in part on the centrality values, and a particular action to be performed with respect to the at least one significant node may be determined.
