  • Publication number: 20170063899
    Abstract: A security platform employs a variety techniques and mechanisms to detect security related anomalies and threats in a computer network environment. The security platform is “big data” driven and employs machine learning to perform security analytics. The security platform performs user/entity behavioral analytics (UEBA) to detect the security related anomalies and threats, regardless of whether such anomalies/threats were previously known. The security platform can include both real-time and batch paths/modes for detecting anomalies and threats. By visually presenting analytical results scored with risk ratings and supporting evidence, the security platform enables network security administrators to respond to a detected anomaly or threat, and to take action promptly.

  • Patent number: 9298417
    Abstract: A system for facilitating management of content data contained in a plurality of files is disclosed. The system may include a data discovery program configured to scan context data pertaining to the content data. The system may also include logic (or a service profile program) configured to determine one or more service profiles. The one or more service profiles may be selected and/or determined by a user or determined based on one or more rules and the current state of the context data. The one or more service profiles may define one or more services to be performed on at least one of one or more files among the plurality of files and at least a portion of the content data and/or the context data.

  • Patent number: 9135261
    Abstract: A system for facilitating data discovery on a network, wherein the network has one or more data storage devices. The system may include a crawler program configured to select at least a first set of files and a second set of files, each of the first set of files and the second set of files being stored in at least one of the one or more data storage devices. The system may also include a data fetcher program configured to obtain a copy of the first set of files, the data fetcher program being further configured to resist against obtaining a copy of the second set of files. The system may also include circuit hardware implementing one or more functions of one or more of the crawler program and the data fetcher program.

  • Patent number: 9002777
    Abstract: A method for handling files to timely provide reports concerning the files is disclosed. The method may include crawling (or enumerating) the files, to figure out how many files/data are to be processed and/or how much processing work is to be performed. The method may also include processing the files in batches. Identification information (e.g., filenames, file paths, and/or object identifiers) pertaining to the files may be sent to one or more queues for batch processing of the files. The method may further include generating a report after processing of a batch among the batches is completed. The report may be generated before subsequent processing of a subsequent batch is completed.
