  • Patent number: 11200100
    Abstract: In a computer-implemented method for performing alert notification on streaming textual data, streaming textual data is received. A plurality of copies of the streaming textual data is generated, wherein a first copy of the streaming textual data is transmitted to an ingestion service for persistent storage at a data plane and a second copy of the streaming textual data is transmitted to an alert evaluation service for performing alert evaluation on the streaming textual data, such that the ingestion service and the alert evaluation service are performed independently. The streaming textual data is evaluated by the alert evaluation service to detect an alert. Responsive to detecting an alert at the alert evaluation service, a notification of the alert is generated.

  • Patent number: 11200338
    Abstract: Access to sensitive information in a database can be restricted to improve security and enable efficient auditing. A security engine receives a request from a requesting entity to access data in the database and determines that the requested data includes sensitive information. In response to the requesting entity being authorized to access the data, the security engine retrieves the requested data from the database and modifies the retrieved data by modifying metadata of the retrieved data to include a tag indicating that the retrieved data includes sensitive information. The security engine provides the modified data to the requesting entity and modifies a data access log to identify each attempted access to the modified data. When sensitive data is requested, an interface can include an obscuring element, requiring a user to manually select the element to view the data, enabling the logging of the explicit access request by the user.

  • Patent number: 11169506
    Abstract: In one embodiment, a monitoring device ingests a plurality of data records sequentially from a data stream, each having an associated timestamp, and builds a cluster pattern for a plurality of time periods by placing each data record into a corresponding cluster of a particular time period based on the associated timestamp of each data record. The monitoring device then establishes connection between clusters of different time periods by assigning each data record of each particular time period to both an adjacent preceding and succeeding time period. The monitoring device may detect cluster transitions based on the established connections between clusters of different time periods, and can compute cluster migration metrics based on the cluster transitions. The monitoring device then predicts future cluster migration metrics based on computed cluster migration metrics, detects an anomaly about the predicted future cluster migration metrics, and reacts to the anomaly, accordingly.

  • Patent number: 11119834
    Abstract: Dominant sequences that are representative of logged events can be artificially created. Initially, a graph comprising multiple nodes and edges between pairs of nodes is generated from logged information. The weights, or values, associated with edges are incremented as the log data reveals a temporal relationship between two nodes. Subsequently, a set of candidate trajectories, with each candidate trajectory representing a sequence of events, are generated by repeatedly traversing the generated graph in a random manner by commencing at randomly selected nodes and then proceeding in a random manner to subsequent nodes in accordance with the edge values, for a random quantity of steps. The candidate trajectories are filtered to eliminate those that are impossible or improbable based on a comparison between individual candidate trajectories and the quantity of occurrences within the logs. Scoring is based both on a quantity of occurrences as well as a quantity of steps.
