  • Patent number: 10291637
    Abstract: A security system detects and attributes anomalous activity in a network. The system logs user network activity, which can include ports used, IP addresses, commands typed, etc., and may detect anomalous activity by comparing users to find similar users, sorting similar users into cohorts, and comparing new user activity to logged behavior of the cohort. The comparison can include a divergence calculation. Origins of user activity can also be used to determine anomalous network activity. The hostname, username, IP address, and timestamp can be used to calculate aggregate scores and convoluted scores. The system extracts features from the logged anomalous network activity, and determines whether the activity is attributable to an actor profile by comparing the extracted features and attributes associated with the actor profile based upon previous activity attributed to the actor.

  • Patent number: 10275778
    Abstract: In various embodiments, systems, methods, and techniques are disclosed for generating a collection of clusters of related data from a seed to assist in detection of financial malfeasance. Seeds may be generated based on seed generation strategies or rules. Clusters may be generated by, for example, retrieving a seed, adding the seed to a first cluster, retrieving a clustering strategy or rules, and adding related data (such as trades, emails or chat messages) and/or data entities to the cluster based on the clustering strategy. Various cluster scores may be generated based on attributes of data in a given cluster, and the clusters may be displayed and ranked based on their scores. Various embodiments may enable an analyst to review clusters of trades, emails and/or chat messages that are the most likely to reveal financial malfeasance.

  • Patent number: 10270727
    Abstract: In one embodiment, a computer-implemented process is programmed or configured to allow a first mobile device to generate and send enriched pin data to a geographical messaging system. Enriched pin data may include latitude and longitude data, a timestamp, and a media element. Media elements may include image data, video data, text data, drawing data that defines a geographic location, route data that defines a geographic travel path, and/or pin expiration data. The geographical messaging system may then broadcast the enriched pin data to a second mobile device belonging to a team member in the same geographical region as the first mobile device. The second mobile device may then use the enriched pin data to display, on a geographical map, a map pin that corresponds to the enriched pin data. In one embodiment, the second mobile device may also use the enriched pin data to display, in a message chain, a message related to the enriched pin data.

  • Patent number: 10262053
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for storing a first data object comprising a first set of immutable components, the first data object being associated with a corresponding second data object stored by a remote replication system. A difference is determined between the first set of immutable components of the first data object and a second set of immutable components of the corresponding second data object. A subset of immutable components is identified from the first set of immutable components based on the difference. The subset of immutable components from the first set of immutable components is provided to the remote replication system over a communication network.

  • Patent number: 10261763
    Abstract: Data transformation in a distributed system of applications and data repositories is described. The subsystems for the overall framework are distributed, thereby allowing for customization to require only isolated changes to one or more subsystems. In one embodiment, a source code repository is used to receive and store source code. A build subsystem can retrieve source code from the source code repository and build it, using one or more criteria. By building the source code, the build subsystem can generate an artifact, which is executable code, such as a JAR or SQL file. Likewise, by building the source code, the build subsystem can generate one or more job specifications for executing the executable code. In one embodiment, the artifact and job specification may be used to launch an application server in a cluster. The application server can then receive data transformation instructions and execute the data transformation instructions.

  • Patent number: 10248294
    Abstract: A modal-less save interface enables a user to provide a filename under which to save a document at any time during operation of the application, without interrupting other user tasks of the application. The user inputs a filename and performs a save operation on a document without navigating menu items or launching a modal window. The modal-less save interface may be provided in a portion of the main application window. For example, the modal-less save interface may be presented in a toolbar, taskbar, status bar, window pane, or sidebar. An application may feature a modal-less access control interface. The modal-less access control interface may be provided in a portion of the main application window. The access control interface may comprise a control, such as link, button, checkbox, text box, or pull-down menu.
