How segmented is my network?
arXiv:2602.10125v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Network segmentation is a popular security practice for limiting lateral movement, yet practitioners lack a metric to measure how segmented a network actually is. We model a network as a graph and study segmentedness as a property captured by the global edge density that can be estimated from sampled node pairs. Then, we derive an estimator and evaluate its uncertainty using confidence intervals. For a 95% confidence interval with a margin-of-error of $pm […]
