  • Publication number: 20260261550
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are systems and methods for correlating Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) certificate data. Some disclosed embodiments involve accessing, with an observability platform, SSL data. Some disclosed embodiments involve extracting first certificate data for a certificate. The first certificate data may include a first serial number, host name, and expiration date. Some disclosed embodiments involve obtaining second certificate data for the certificate. The second certificate data may include a second serial number and a common name. Some disclosed embodiments involve normalizing the first serial number and the second serial number to a standard format. Some disclosed embodiments involve generating correlational data by correlating the normalized first serial number with the normalized second serial number. The correlational data may include the host name, the common name, and the expiration date. Some disclosed embodiments involve determining a status of the certificate based on the correlational data.

  • Patent number: 8533537
    Abstract: Apparatus and methods for reducing infrastructure failure rates. The apparatus and methods may involve reduction of data complexity. The reduction may be based on the use of nonlinear analysis to derive representative variables, which may be multi-valued. Multi-valued variables may be consolidated. A model may be developed based on the values and relationships of the derived variables. The model may be applied to assess the risk involved in a prospective infrastructure change.
