Abstract: Embodiments are disclosed herein for remote retrieval of information from endpoints and comprise receiving a master query at an endpoint in a network environment and executing a set of one or more subqueries defined in the master query. Embodiments also comprise an execution of a first subquery that includes executing a function to produce a first output, applying one or more conditions to the first output to determine a second output, and determining a result of the master query based, at least in part, on the second output. In specific embodiments, the master query is received from another node over a network connection. In more specific embodiments, the function is executed on the endpoint to collect real-time information based on one or more parameters. In further embodiments, the function is one of a plug-in or a script.

Abstract: There is disclosed in one example a computing apparatus, including: a hardware platform including a processor and a memory; and instructions encoded within the memory to instruct the processor to: trace, for a plurality of actions having different direct parent actors, a common responsible parent actor, wherein the instructions determine that the common responsible parent actor caused or directed the plurality of actions; compile a report of the plurality of actions, wherein the actions are grouped by the common responsible parent actor; send the report to a machine or human analysis agent; responsive to the report, receive from the analysis agent a remedial action; and execute the remedial action.
