  • Publication number: 20240354401
    Abstract: A graphical user interface (GUI) for presentation of network security risk and threat information is disclosed. A listing is generated of incidents identified by use of event data obtained from a networked computing environment. A particular incident is determined to be associated with a risk object, wherein a risk object is a component of the networked computing environment. The listing is populated with a name associated with the risk object. Risk events associated with the incident are determined, wherein each risk event contributes to a risk score for the incident. The risk score indicates a potential security issue associated with the risk object. The listing is populated with the risk score and a summary of the events. An action is associated with the listing, for triggering display of additional information associated with the risk object. The listing can be displayed in a first display screen of the GUI.

  • Patent number: 11402979
    Abstract: A display is created and manipulated in connection with an event, such as a notable security event investigation. A plurality of activity indicators for the event are displayed in a time order using both horizontal and vertical directions. Each activity indicator corresponds to a an activity related to the event. A linear display of shapes is provided, each shape corresponding to one or more of the activity indicators, of the same type, in a time sequence. In response to a user action, the time period corresponding to the plurality of shapes is changed so that shapes corresponding to a new time period selected by the user are displayed. Also in response to this user action, only the activity indicators corresponding to the new time period selected by the user are displayed.
