A graph of a plurality of resources in a computing environment is generated, with the graph associating a first resource of the plurality with a second resource of the plurality. Based at least in part on measurements obtained at a point in a test computing environment that corresponds to a point in the computing environment, an expected value or expected range of values is determined. An assessment of a security state of the computing environment is generated based at least in part on a comparison between a measurement obtained at the point in the computing environment and the expected value or expected range of values, and responsive to a determination that the assessment indicates a rule violation in the computing environment, a security action is performed.
