Abstract: A breach detection engine detects and mitigates the effects of breaches across one or more data sources. An index is generated based on one or more data sources and the index is queried using keywords indicative of potential breaches. A database of potential breaches is populated based on the query of the index. The potential breach database is queried using keywords associated with a system identity (e.g., a third party). A likelihood of a candidate breach is identified based on a set of breach criteria weights. A network node associated with a candidate breach determined to be an actual breach is identified for isolation or for the performance of one or more additional security actions.

Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure are directed to translating application calls for on-device machine learning execution. A translation layer supports on-device machine learning execution by translating JavaScript software application call data to achieve interoperability with on-device machine learning models. For example, JavaScript software applications interact with data, such as images, audio, video, and/or text, in a format or data type that is compatible with the application. On the other hand, machine learning models interact with data in a form conducive to mathematical operations, such as a data structure representation (e.g., tensor representation). Implementations translate data types and/or data files to provide compatible data to each of a native JavaScript software application and on-device machine learning models.
