  • Patent number: 11196636
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure can aggregate network flow data over various periods of time, and present a graphical representation of the network flow information based on the aggregated data instead of (or in addition to) the raw network flow data. Among other things, embodiments of the present disclosure are able to present historical network flow data for relatively long periods of time without having to store large volumes of raw network flow data.

  • Patent number: 10862920
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method according to one embodiment of the present disclosure includes identifying, by a computer system, an asset associated with a group; detecting a change in an attribute of the asset; and in response to detecting the change in the attribute of the asset, modifying, by the computer system, a configuration setting for a firewall. Among other things, the embodiments of the present disclosure can perform dynamically configure and control security features in response to changes in the computing environment, including asset attribute changes, security events, operational events, user input and environmental changes. Embodiments of the present disclosure thereby help to quickly maintain or change the security posture of a system and maintain the level of compliance with set of predefined security benchmarks or codified best practices.
