Summary

In this chapter, we learned how to leverage a graph database to model a wide range of assets across the organization with the goal of building a comprehensive knowledge graph.

Finally, we discussed other data sources that can be added to a knowledge graph to provide a holistic view of assets across the organization. This might include data from AD, blue team, vulnerability information, production services, external cloud systems, and so forth.

Using the information in this chapter should get you started with building your own graph database prototypes and exploring features and use cases. The chapter hopefully also helped you to better understand possible scenarios to model...
