  • Publication number: 20240414204
    Abstract: Disclosed embodiments provide techniques for cybersecurity AI-driven workflow generation using policies. A set of cybersecurity threat protection applications is accessed and managed by a security orchestration, automation, and response (SOAR) platform. The cybersecurity threat protection applications are deployed across a managed cybersecurity network. One or more cybersecurity network compliance requirements are assimilated into the SOAR platform by translating the compliance requirements into one or more cybersecurity application policies and work processes. The assimilation is accomplished using an AI user interface with natural language processing. The cybersecurity application policies provide conformity with the compliance requirements. The application policies generate one or more cybersecurity application workflows for the managed cybersecurity network. The SOAR platform executes the cybersecurity workflow.

  • Patent number: 7805733
    Abstract: A computer program product and a system are provided for implementing the Hardware Platform Interface (HPI) specification for platform management of computer systems. Software, implemented by the computer program product includes a user library, a resource program, a domain program and a bridge program. The user library accepts calls from user application programs for accessing management data and management capabilities incorporated in a running instance of the resource program. The running instance of the resource program provides access to the management data and the management capabilities. This access is through restrictions to a set of running instances of the domain program. In addition, access to the user application programs is indirect through a set of running instances of the domain program.

  • Patent number: 7805734
    Abstract: Software for platform management of high-availability computer systems is provided. A management database can be configured for storing the data about the set of management instruments and the set of management capabilities that are required for the platform management. Further, an application program interface (API) and a command line interface (CLI) are provided for administering of the hardware platform by reading and updating the state of set of management instruments, and the set of management capabilities. Execution of a policy in the occurrence of a pre-defined trigger event can be enabled by a policy execution module.
