US Patent 11777978 Methods and systems for accurately assessing application access risk

Systems and methods for assessing an application access risk are provided. An example method commences with collecting data concerning relationships between an application, one or more client devices, and one or more users in a computing environment. The method includes updating a graph database including nodes and edges. The nodes represent the application, the one or more client devices, and the one or more users and the edges represent relationships between the application, the one or more client devices, and the one or more users. The method continues with enriching the graph database by associating the nodes with metadata including information concerning the one or more users accessing the application from the one or more client devices. The method further includes analyzing the graph database to identify a subset of nodes used to access the application and displaying a graphical representation of the subset of nodes.
