The method includes detecting, by at least one computer device, a breach of a first system in the networked computing environment. The method also includes identifying a second system in the in the networked computing environment as an at-risk system based on a proximity of the second system to the first system. The method additionally includes re-generating, by the at least one computer device, the second system as a new system at a new location in the networked computing environment.
