Patent number: 10659486Abstract: A universal link to extract and classify log data is disclosed. In various embodiments, a set of candidate data values that match a top level pattern that is common to two or more types of data value of interest is identified. The candidate data values are processed through a plurality of successive filtering stages, each stage of which includes determining which, if any, of said candidates match a more specific pattern associated more specifically with a specific data value type. Candidates, if any, which match the more specific pattern are classified as being of a corresponding specific data type and are removed from the set of candidate data values. A structured data record that associates each candidate data value determined to be of a corresponding one of said types of data value of interest with said corresponding one of said types of data value of interest is generated and stored.Type: GrantFiled: April 17, 2019Date of Patent: May 19, 2020Assignee: Anomali IncorporatedInventors: Wei Huang, Yizheng Zhou, Hugh Seretse Njemanze, Zhong Deng

Patent number: 10616248Abstract: A security monitoring system operated by a downstream client continually collects event information indicating events that have occurred within the computing environment of the downstream client. The monitoring system, using software provided by a threat analytics system, aggregates the event information into a secure and space efficient data structure. The monitoring system transmits the data structures storing event information to the threat analytics system for further processing. The threat analytics system also receives threat indicators from intelligence feed data sources. The threat analytics system compares the event information received from each security monitoring system against the threat indicators collected from the intelligence feed data sources to identify red flag events. The threat analytics system processes the event information to synthesize all information related to the red flag event and reports the red flag event to the downstream client.Type: GrantFiled: January 23, 2019Date of Patent: April 7, 2020Assignee: Anomali IncorporatedInventors: Wei Huang, Yizheng Zhou, Hugh Njemanze

Patent number: 10367829Abstract: A threat analytics system expends significant resources to acquire, structure, and filter the threat indicators provided to the client-side monitoring systems. To protect the threat indicators from misuse, the threat analytics system only provides enough information about the threat indicators to the client-side systems to allow the client-side systems to detect past and ongoing threats. Specifically, the threat analytics system provides obfuscated threat indicators to the client-side monitoring systems. The obfuscated threat indicators enable the client-side systems to detect threats while protecting the threat indicators from misuse or malicious actors.Type: GrantFiled: November 19, 2015Date of Patent: July 30, 2019Assignee: Anomali IncorporatedInventors: Wei Huang, Yizheng Zhou, Hugh Njemanze
