1. A computer-implemented method comprising:
- displaying, through an interactive graphical user interface, information from a node-edge graph database, wherein nodes and edges from the graph database represent, respectively, assets of a portfolio of entities and relationships among the assets,identifying service relationships in which a common supplier is used by a plurality of entities within the portfolio of entities, based on, at least in part, transactions on the Internet between the common supplier and one or more entities of the plurality of entities,providing information indicative of a cyber-security risk to a principal entity associated with the plurality of entities based on the identified service relationships, wherein the cyber-security risk comprises an aggregated risk based at least in part on the common supplier used by the plurality of entities,displaying controls enabling a user to apply a database query corresponding to the identified service relationships to the graph database without the user formulating the database query, andgraphically displaying nodes and edges that result from applying the query to the graph database.

1. A computer-implemented method comprising:
-
displaying, through an interactive graphical user interface, information from a node-edge graph database, wherein nodes and edges from the graph database represent, respectively, assets of a portfolio of entities and relationships among the assets, identifying service relationships in which a common supplier is used by a plurality of entities within the portfolio of entities, based on, at least in part, transactions on the Internet between the common supplier and one or more entities of the plurality of entities, providing information indicative of a cyber-security risk to a principal entity associated with the plurality of entities based on the identified service relationships, wherein the cyber-security risk comprises an aggregated risk based at least in part on the common supplier used by the plurality of entities, displaying controls enabling a user to apply a database query corresponding to the identified service relationships to the graph database without the user formulating the database query, and graphically displaying nodes and edges that result from applying the query to the graph database. - View Dependent Claims (2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 19, 20)

15. A computer implemented method comprising:
-
receiving, through a communication network, information identifying a portfolio of business entities with which a principal entity has a business relationship, displaying, through an interactive graphical user interface, information from a node-edge graph database, wherein nodes and edges within the graph database represent, respectively, assets of the portfolio of entities and relationships among the assets, identifying service relationships in which a common supplier is used by a plurality of entities within the portfolio of entities, based on, at least in part, transactions on the Internet between the common supplier and one or more entities of the plurality of entities, based on the information identifying the portfolio of business entities and the identified service relationships, querying the graph database to identify (i) the common supplier that provides technology services to the plurality of entities and (ii) a category of technology services to which the common supplier belongs, graphically displaying nodes and edges that result from querying the graph database, and based on the results of the query, determining risks to the principal entity associated with the provision of the technology services by the common supplier to the plurality of entities wherein the determined risks comprise an aggregated risk based at least in part on the common supplier used by the plurality of entities. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 21)
