Patent number: 12596797Abstract: This disclosure presents an approach for identifying obfuscation patterns within system log files to enhance cybersecurity. The method involves two key stages: first, detecting tampering in a primary set of log entries; and second, monitoring a secondary set of log files for the presence of these tampering patterns. By comparing the identified obfuscation patterns in the primary log entries with those detected in the secondary set, the system can effectively identify potential system intrusions. This innovative approach provides an advanced and proactive means of bolstering system security by uncovering and responding to malicious activities that attempt to obscure their tracks within log files, ultimately enhancing the defense against cyber threats.Type: GrantFiled: November 8, 2023Date of Patent: April 7, 2026Assignee: Kyndryl, Inc.Inventors: Cesar Augusto Rodriguez Bravo, Daniel S.
