Abstract:

A system, method and non-transitory computer readable medium for detecting unsecured sensors in a network. A computing system can find an IP address associated with an unsecured sensor based on a port through which the unsecured sensor communicates with the network. The computing system can ascertain a prefix route associated with the IP address for the unsecured sensor based on a portion of the IP address. The computing system can determine geographic coordinate data associated with the prefix route. The computing system can identify location data of a set of facilities within a specified geographic radius of the geographic coordinate data. The computing system can associate the unsecured sensor with a first one of the facilities in the set of facilities based on a distance between geographic coordinate data and the location data associated with the first one of the facilities being less than a specified distance threshold.
