  • Patent number: 11032304
    Abstract: A mechanism is provided in a data processing system comprising at least one processor and at least one memory, the at least one memory comprising instructions executed by the at least one processor to cause the at least one processor to implement an ontology based persistent attack campaign detection engine. In response to a security incident, the mechanism sends the security incident to an incident model microservice executing within the persistent attack campaign detection engine. The incident model microservice extracts artifacts from the incident, maps the artifacts to a graph topology data structure, and stores the graph topology data structure in a graph data storage.

  • Patent number: 10831868
    Abstract: A method, system, apparatus, and a computer program product are provided for managing a rate-based license by monitoring geographic location information for each of a plurality of users in different time zones and adjusting allocations of an application license for a user organization across the plurality of users based on the geographic location information for the plurality of users and an amount of the application license expected to be used during specified peak hours at each geographic location so that the application license is allocated to permit each usage for each user during the specified peak hours at each geographic location.
