  • Patent number: 10897476
    Abstract: A mechanism is provided for reparsing unsuccessfully parsed event data. Responsive to determining that one or more unsuccessfully parsed event data items exist for a log source, each unsuccessfully parsed event data item of the one or more unsuccessfully parsed event data items is reparsing using an updated device support module associated with the log source. Responsive to the device support module successfully reparsing the unsuccessfully parsed event data item thereby forming a successfully parsed event data item, the successfully parsed event data item is added to a historical record of events associated with the log source. Responsive to the device support module failing to successfully reparse the unsuccessfully parsed event data item, the unsuccessfully parsed event data item is retained in an unsuccessfully parsed event data item data structure.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20180034780
    Abstract: In an approach, a processor receives information from a computing device, wherein the information comprises normalized device configuration files, topology records, and telemetry data. A processor evaluates the information for asset data, routing information, traffic processing rules, and firewall rules. A processor generates a plain text asset data file, wherein the asset data file comprises an asset record for each possible asset. A processor creates, based on the generated plain asset data file, a testing event. A processor runs the testing event.
