A method and a system for identifying indicators of compromise in a network infrastructure are provided. The method being executable by a computing device communicatively couplable to the network infrastructure, the computing devices being positioned outside a perimeter of the network infrastructure. The method comprises: obtaining an infrastructure graph for the network infrastructure, identifying, for a given protected infrastructure element, a portion of the infrastructure graph including vertices representative of linked infrastructure elements; analyzing a given one of the linked infrastructure elements to determine a respective value thereof; determining whether the respective value of the given one of the linked infrastructure elements is indicative of the network infrastructure being compromised; in response to the respective value of any one of the linked infrastructure elements associated to the given protected infrastructure element being indicative of the network infrastructure being compromised: generating and transmitting at least one warning about a potential cyberattack.
