Monitoring security risk of a computing device

A computer-implemented method for a computing device, the method comprising:

• determining a structure of a probabilistic graphical model including a plurality of nodes, wherein a first node of the plurality of nodes corresponds to a first security parameter of a plurality of security parameters of a device and a second node of the plurality of nodes corresponds to a second security parameter of the plurality of security parameters, wherein the first node is assigned a first probability value of a plurality of probability values and the second node is assigned a second probability value of the plurality of probability values, wherein the probabilistic graphical model represents dependences of the plurality of security parameters of the device, and wherein the first probability value indicates the first security parameter being in a first state and the second probability value indicates the second security parameter being in a second state;
• determining a probability of the device at risk based on the probabilistic graphical model and the plurality of probability values assigned to the plurality of nodes of the probabilistic graphical model;
• determining a user action instruction based on the probability of the device at risk;
• and
• provide the user action instruction to the device.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions, the instructions, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to perform operations comprising:

• determining a structure of a probabilistic graphical model including a plurality of nodes, wherein a first node of the plurality of nodes corresponds to a first security parameter of a plurality of security parameters of a device and a second node of the plurality nodes corresponds to a second security parameter of the plurality of security parameters, wherein the first node is assigned a first probability value of a plurality of probability values and the second node is assigned a second probability value of the plurality of probability values, wherein the probabilistic graphical model represents dependences of the plurality of security parameters of the device, and wherein the first probability value indicates the first security parameter being in a first state and the second probability value indicates the second security parameter being in a second state;
• determining a probability of the device at risk based on the probabilistic graphical model and the plurality of probability values assigned to the plurality of nodes of the probabilistic graphical model;
• determining a user action instruction based on the probability of the device at risk;
• and
• providing the user action instruction to the device.
