Abstract: A method and system for aggregating and correlating disparate and unrelated events to enable faster security event detection. A plurality of event logs generated by a number of disparate, unrelated, independent components of a fault-tolerant server and platform-specific data are contextualized through the use of a security context map, enabling unrelated events to be correlated to identify security incidents indicative of security threats. User- or system-generated rules may then be applied to the contextualized data to enable more sophisticated security breach identification.
