A system and method for the prevention, mitigation, and detection of cyberattack attacks on computer networks by identifying weaknesses in directory access object allowances and providing professionals with centralized graph-centric tools to maintain and observe key security and performance insights into their security posture. The system uses an interrogation agent to collect Active Directory configuration parameters and activity information about a forest and the devices operating within. Cyber-physical graphs and histograms using persisted time-series data provides critical information, patterns, and alerts about configurations, attack vectors, and vulnerabilities which enable information technology and cybersecurity professionals greater leverage and control over their infrastructure.
