Abstract: In connection with a data distribution architecture, client-side “deduplication” techniques may be utilized for data transfers occurring among various file system nodes. In some examples, these deduplication techniques involve fingerprinting file system elements that are being shared and transferred, and dividing each file into separate units referred to as “blocks” or “chunks.” These separate units may be used for independently rebuilding a file from local and remote collections, storage locations, or sources. The deduplication techniques may be applied to data transfers to prevent unnecessary data transfers, and to reduce the amount of bandwidth, processing power, and memory used to synchronize and transfer data among the file system nodes. The described deduplication concepts may also be applied for purposes of efficient file replication, data transfers, and file system events occurring within and among networks and file system nodes.

Abstract: A system for forensic file services is configured to receive data indicative of operations executed on a filesystem element stored on a computing resource associated with a first tenant, to and adjust the data according to an indicated database schema. The system is also configured to store the adjusted data in a record of a partition of a database, where the partition configured to store a history of operations executed on filesystem elements of computing resources associated with the first tenant. The system is further configured to receive a search request to search the database and to execute the search request on a second partition of the database to identify one or more matching records. The system is additionally configured to provide the identified records in response to the search request.

Abstract: Systems and techniques for detecting suspicious file activity are described herein. System for identifying anomalous data events is adapted to monitor a networked file system and receive an indication of a suspicious event associated with a user and a file. The system is further adapted to perform a pattern of behavior analysis for the user, perform an adjacency by time analysis based on a set of events before the suspicious event and a set of events after the suspicious event, and perform an adjacency by location analysis using a set of files located in a location of the file. The system is further adapted to determine whether the suspicious event is an anomalous event based on the pattern of behavior analysis, the adjacency by time analysis, and the adjacency by location analysis and display a report for the user including the anomalous event.

Abstract: A system to generate historical usage data of a computing resource includes a module is configured to use at least one processor of the system to receive a query including a target and a time window and to retrieve historical file system data from backups of computing resources, where the historical file system data includes a file system object that was processed by the target during the time window. The module is further configured to use at least one processor of the system to generate historical usage data by converting the historical file system data to a temporally flat format that preserves a provenance of the file system object and to store the historical usage in a hierarchical data structure. The module is additionally configured to use at least one processor of the system to provide the hierarchical data structure in a response to the received query.
