Abstract: Introduced here is a network-accessible platform (or simply “platform”) that is designed to monitor digital activities that are performed across different services to ascertain, in real time, threats to the security of an enterprise. In order to surface insights into the threats posed to an enterprise, the platform can apply machine learning models to data that is representative of digital activities performed on different services with respective accounts. Each model may be trained to understand what constitutes normal behavior for a corresponding employee with respect to a single service or multiple services. Not only can these models be autonomously trained for the employees of the enterprise, but they can also be autonomously applied to detect, characterize, and catalog those digital activities that are indicative of a threat.

Abstract: Systems and methods are described herein for recommending content restrictions to a user based on chatter in a social network of the user. The system analyzes chatter in the social network to identify a correlation between what is posted by users and the content that the users are posting about. The system stores a mapping between chatter and expected attributes of the content referenced by the chatter. The system will determine whether to block the content when an expected attribute is associated with a content restriction.

Abstract: The efficient utilization is provided within a cloud-computing environment where a master plane executing on a master node controls spinning up and down worker nodes, with worker nodes whose output is necessary for functioning of other worker nodes being spun up before the worker nodes needing that output. By dedicating the available computational resources to the earlier-spun worker nodes, these worker nodes are able to process a greater amount of monitoring data. Once the output of these worker nodes is ready, the available resources are reallocated to the worker nodes that use the output of the earlier-spun worker nodes. Additional control over the cardiac monitoring can be provided by communicating with a monitor to increase the rate at which the monitor transmits the collected data as well as pausing generation of alerts based on the monitoring data if such alerts are likely to be inaccurate.
