Threat Mapping Engine

An apparatus comprising:

• a processor;
• and
• a computer readable medium in communication with the processor, the computer readable medium having encoded thereon a set of instructions executable by the processor to:
• obtain, via a vertex discovery harvester subsystem, one or more vertices discovered from a public network
• obtain, via an edge extractor subsystem, edges extracted from the one or more vertices, wherein the edges are extracted based on data contained within each respective vertex of the one or more vertices
• obtain, via a vertex correlator, one or more vertex correlations, wherein a vertex correlation is a correlation between a respective pair of vertices of the one or more vertices via one or more edges;
• receive, via a user interface, a selection of a first known vertex of the one or more vertices;
• generate a map of one or more connections from the first known vertex to at least one related vertex of the one or more vertices via at least one edge, based on the one or more vertex correlations;
• determine a threat score indicative of a threat posed by at least one related vertex of the map;
• and
• generate a threat graph, wherein the threat graph includes the threat score of the at least one related vertex layered over the map.
