  • Patent number: 11966425
    Abstract: Systems and methods for improving a search process by providing a visual guided search experience is provided. A networked system determines a location of a user device. A user interface (UI) is presented illustrating a map at a first level view of an area based on the location. The networked system receives, via the UI, a first touch input indicating a zoom selection. In response, the UI shows a second level view of the area that includes a plurality of nodes each representing a point of interest in the area. The second level view is a lower level view than the first level view. The networked system then receives, via the UI, a second touch input selecting a node of the plurality of node. In response to the selecting of the node, navigation information for a selected point of interest corresponding to the selected node is presented.

  • Patent number: 11848830
    Abstract: Techniques are disclosed of detection and analysis of network-based assets under common management by an entity. Network-based assets that are under common management by an entity may be owned or associated with the entity. Some network assets may appear to be under the common management of an entity, but may be operated by an unauthorized entity. Detecting a relationship between or ownership of network assets for malicious network activity may be a challenge. Specifically, the connection between authorized assets and unauthorized assets may be difficult to identify, especially if assets are masked or changed to evade detection. A network analytic system is disclosed that can process different data from multiple sources (e.g., at least multiple, disparate data sources) to identify relationships between network-based assets.

  • Patent number: 11836331
    Abstract: A graph model of a graphical user interface (GUI) may be generated by processing usage data of the GUI where the usage data comprises sequences of GUI pages and actions between GUI pages. The nodes of the graph model may be determined by obtaining GUI pages from the usage data, identifying dynamic GUI elements in the GUI pages, generating canonical GUI pages by modifying the GUI pages using the dynamic GUI elements, and creating graph nodes using the canonical GUI pages. The edges of the graph may be determined by processing actions from the GUI data that were performed by users to transition from one GUI page to another GUI page. The graph model of the GUI may be used for any appropriate application, such as determining statistics relating to the GUI or statistics relating to individual users of the GUI.
