  • Patent number: 11783053
    Abstract: A system, method, and computer-readable medium are disclosed for performing an entity behavior cataloging operation. The entity behavior cataloging operation includes: identifying a security related activity, the security related activity being based upon an observable from an electronic data source; analyzing the security related activity, the analyzing identifying an event of analytic utility associated with the security related activity; generating entity behavior catalog data based upon the event of analytic utility associated with the security related activity; and, storing the entity behavior catalog data within an entity behavior catalog, the entity behavior catalog providing an inventory of entity behaviors for use when performing a security operation.

  • Patent number: 11675910
    Abstract: A system, method, and computer-readable medium are disclosed for performing a security operation. The security operation includes: monitoring an entity, the monitoring observing at least one electronically-observable data source; deriving an observable based upon the monitoring of the electronically-observable data source; identifying a security related activity of the entity, the security related activity being based upon the observable derived from the electronic data source, the security related activity being of analytic utility; converting the security related activity to entity behavior catalog data, the entity behavior catalog providing an inventory of entity behaviors; and, accessing an entity behavior catalog based upon the entity behavior catalog data; and performing a security operation via a security system, the security operation using the entity behavior catalog data stored within the entity behavior catalog based upon the security related activity.

  • Patent number: 10776497
    Abstract: Security analysis and vulnerability testing results are “packaged” or “bound to” the actual software it describes. By linking the results to the software itself, downstream users of the software can access information about the software, make informed decisions about implementation of the software, and analyze the security risk across an entire system by accessing all (or most) of the reports associated with the executables running on the system and summarizing the risks identified in the reports.
