Abstract
This disclosure describes techniques that include assessing trust in a system, and in particular, assessing trust for entities based on a trust score plan. In one example, this disclosure describes a method that includes identifying, by the computing system, a selected trust score plan from a plurality of trust score plans associated with a network entity in a computer network; storing, by a computing system, information collected about the network entity in the computer network; determining, by the computing system and based on the identified trust score plan and the stored information, a trust score for the network entity; and modifying, by the computing system and based on the trust score for the network entity, operations within the computer network.
