Abstract: A network-accessible service provides an enterprise with a view of identity and data activity in the enterprise's cloud accounts. The service enables cloud provider management models to be normalized with centralized analytics and views across cloud accounts. Based on identity and audit data received from a set of cloud deployments, and according to a cloud intelligence model, a set of permissions associated with each of a set of identities are determined. For each identity, and based on a set of identity chains extracted from the cloud intelligence model, a set of identity account action paths (IAAPs) are then determined. An IAAP defines how the identity obtains an ability to perform a given action in a given account. Using the identity account action paths together with context information, one or more roles, groups and accounts in the enterprise that are propagating permissions within the public cloud environment are then identified.

Abstract: A network-accessible service provides an enterprise with a view of identity and data activity in the enterprise's cloud accounts. The service enables distinct cloud provider management models to be normalized with centralized analytics and views across large numbers of cloud accounts. Using a domain-specific query language, the system enables rapid interrogation of a complete and centralized data model of all data and identity relationships. The data model also supports a cloud “least privilege and access” framework. Least privilege is a set of minimum permissions that are associated to a given identity; least access is a minimal set of persons that need to have access to given piece data. The framework maps an identity to one or more actions collected in cloud audit logs, and dynamically-build a compete view of an identity's effective permissions. The resulting least privilege and access policies are then applied natively to a given cloud environment to manage access.

Abstract: A network-accessible service provides an enterprise with a view of identity and data activity in the enterprise's cloud accounts. The service enables distinct cloud provider management models to be normalized with centralized analytics and views across large numbers of cloud accounts. The service enables an enterprise to model all activity and relationships across cloud vendors, accounts and third party stores. Using a domain-specific query language, the system enables rapid interrogation of a complete and centralized data model of all data and identity relationships. User reports may be generated showing all privileges and data to which a particular identity has access. Using the display views, a user can pivot all functions across teams, applications and data, geography, provider and compliance mandates, and the like.

Abstract: A method, apparatus and computer program product for selectively storing network traffic data are described. Network traffic is stored according to a first packet filtering policy in a first repository. The stored network traffic is scanned in the first repository according to a second packet filtering policy to identify a subset of network traffic for archiving. The identified subset of network traffic identified by the second packet filtering policy are forensically interesting packets concerning a security issue. The identified subset of network traffic from the first repository is then stored in a second repository.

Abstract: Embodiments provide a system and method for network tracking. By using packet capture applications having a flow identifier and a time stamper, one or more raw packets from one or more packet flows intercepted from a network can be tagged with a unique identifier and timestamp that can later be used to aggregate packet flows that have been analyzed by one or more capture applications. The unique identifier can relate to the network interface of the particular capture application and can also have an increasing value, where the increase in value can be monotonic. Later capture applications, while capable of generating secondary timestamps, can disregard those secondary timestamps for the primary timestamp of the first capture application in order to remove complications arising from latency issues.

Abstract: A method, system and computer-usable medium are disclosed for identifying risk within an information technology (IT) environment, comprising: analyzing characteristics of a user accessing a system within an IT environment; associating a risk profile with the user based upon the characteristics of the user; determining when the user accesses a system within the IT environment; maintaining a user risk profile record of all systems within the IT environment accessed by the user, the user risk profile record continuing to be associated with the system after access by the user ceases; and, identifying a risk level for all systems within the IT environment based upon the user risk profile record.
