  • Publication number: 20240137382
    Abstract: A system and method for detecting a permission escalation event in a computing environment is disclosed. The method includes: generating a cloned disk based on an original disk of a resource deployed in a computing environment; detecting an identifier of a first principal on the cloned disk; detecting a second principal in the computing environment, the first principal authorized to assume the first principal; storing a representation of the computing environment in a security database, including: a first principal node representing the first principal, and a second principal node representing the second principal, further associated with a permission; querying the representation to determine a permission of the first principal; determining that the second principal includes a permission which the first principal does not include based on a result of querying the representation; and generating a permission escalation event.

  • Patent number: 11728567
    Abstract: An antenna canister component prioritization system identifies antenna canister components compatible with an antenna canister. The antenna canister component prioritization system receives information indicating attributes for an antenna canister and information indicating antenna canister components and attributes for the antenna canister components. The antenna canister component prioritization system determines which antenna canister components are compatible with the antenna canister. The antenna canister component prioritization system prioritizes the compatible antenna canister components and presents the prioritized components to a user.

  • Publication number: 20230221983
    Abstract: A system and method detects a vulnerable code object in configuration code for deploying instances in a cloud computing environment. The method includes: accessing a configuration code, including a plurality of code objects, where a code object of the plurality of code objects corresponds to a deployed principal; detecting in a log a plurality of access events, each access event associated with a first principal deployed in the cloud computing environment based on a first code object of the plurality of code objects; determining a first set of permissions associated with the first code object. The method also includes determining a second set of permissions based on the plurality of access events. The method also includes detecting a difference between the second set of permissions and the first set of permissions; and generating an updated code object based on the first code object and the detected difference.

  • Patent number: 10496664
    Abstract: A device configured to operate in a distributed network system includes a key-value processing system to generate at least one of a first request and a second request. The first request is to retrieve a selected one of a plurality of sub-groups of data. The first request includes a plurality of keys each including a first value identifying the selected one of the plurality of sub-groups and a respective one of a plurality of second values. Each of the second values identifies a respective subset of data within the selected one of the plurality of sub-groups. The second request is to retrieve a selected one of the subsets of data within the selected one of the plurality of sub-groups and includes a key. The key includes the first value and a selected one of the second values, and the selected one of the second values corresponds to a hash value.
