  • Patent number: 12563086
    Abstract: A method includes: storing attributes represented in objects, generated by sources during a time interval, into a container storing a set of attributes characterizing the first asset during the time interval; accessing a combination of attributes defining a first vulnerability in a set of vulnerabilities; identifying a subset of assets, including the first device, associated with the first vulnerability based on the combination of attributes represented in the set of attributes; calculating a vulnerability risk score, in a set of vulnerability risk scores, associated with the first vulnerability based on a quantity of devices in the subset of devices and a severity score assigned to the first vulnerability; selecting a subset of vulnerabilities, in the set of vulnerabilities, exhibiting highest vulnerability risk score; and generating a visualization indicating the subset of vulnerabilities, including the first vulnerability, and the quantity of devices associated with the first vulnerability.

  • Patent number: 12526285
    Abstract: A method includes: accessing objects, generated by a set of sources, representing attributes of users affiliated with a computer network; partitioning the objects into object groups, each object group representing a particular user; for each object group, aggregating objects in the object group into a user container, in a set of user containers, representing a user during the first time interval; generating a manifest of users affiliated with the computer network during the first time interval based on the set of user containers; and, in response to selection of a first user in the manifest of users at an operator portal: generating a visualization representing a set of attributes exhibited by the first user during the first time interval.

  • Patent number: 12524812
    Abstract: A method includes: accessing a first set of attributes exhibited by a first asset during a time interval; identifying a first association between the first asset and a second asset based on the first set of attributes; accessing a second set of attributes exhibited by the second asset during the time interval; based on the first association between the first asset and the second asset, associating the first asset with a first subset of attributes in the second set of attributes; identifying an asset group, including the first asset, exhibiting a target combination of attributes during the time interval based on the target combination of attributes represented in the first set of attributes and the first subset of attributes, in the second set of attributes, associated with the first asset; and executing an action on assets in the asset group.

  • Patent number: 12206712
    Abstract: A method includes identifying a first group of objects generated by security tools during a first time interval and containing cotemporal, analogous characteristics identifying a first endpoint device connected to a computer network; based on the first group of objects, confirming detection of the first endpoint device by a first security tool and a second security tool during the first time interval; identifying a second group of objects generated by security tools during a second time interval and containing cotemporal, analogous characteristics identifying the first endpoint device; based on the second group of objects, confirming detection of the first endpoint device by the second security tool during the second time interval; and responsive to absence of detection of the first endpoint device by the first security tool during the second time interval, generating a source remove event specifying removal of the first security tool from the first endpoint device.

  • Patent number: 12088597
    Abstract: A method for monitoring endpoint devices affiliated with a computer network includes: for each security technology, accessing a set of objects generated by the security technology during a time interval and representing characteristics endpoint devices configured with the security technology, partitioning object groups representing individual endpoint devices, and aggregating characteristics represented in each object group into an endpoint device container associated with the security technology and containing identifying data and status data representing one endpoint device; identifying a first subset of endpoint devices configured with first and second security technologies based on correspondence between data contained endpoint device containers associated with the first and second security technologies; and identifying a second subset of endpoint devices configured with the first security technology and excluding the second security technology based on absence of correspondence between data contained in

  • Patent number: 12034735
    Abstract: A method includes: accessing objects, generated by a set of sources, representing attributes of assets, affiliated with a computer network, including a set of endpoint devices and a first application; partitioning the objects into object groups including a first object group representing the first application; aggregating objects in the first object group into a first user container representing the first application during the first time interval; and, in response to selection of the first application at an operator portal: generating a visualization representing a subset of endpoint devices, in the set of endpoint devices, on which the first application is installed during the first time interval based on a set of attributes, exhibited by the first application during the first time interval, contained in the first application container; and rendering the visualization at the operator interface.

  • Patent number: 11882157
    Abstract: A method includes: generating a manifest of assets during the target time interval; labeling each asset in the manifest of assets with a set of attributes exhibited by the asset during the target time interval; defining a first attribute category exhibiting a first combination of attributes; assigning a first action to the first attribute category; identifying a subset of assets in the manifest of assets matching the first attribute category, each asset in the subset of assets exhibiting a set of attributes including the first combination of attributes; and executing the first action on the first subset of assets.
