Abstract: A computer-implemented method for executing a query specification can include evaluating the query specification by a first computing device to identify a candidate expression in the query specification to be executed by a second computing device hosting a source of data specified in the candidate expression. A cost estimate for executing the candidate expression at the first computing device is determined. Whether the cost estimate of executing the candidate expression at the first computing device is greater than a threshold is determined. The candidate expression is replaced with a native query function when the cost estimate of executing the candidate expression at the first computing device is greater than the threshold. The native query function can be executed at the second computing device. It can be determined whether a runtime context is necessary, and if necessary, a context parameter is injected into the native query function.

Abstract: An information technology computing landscape is divided up into hierarchically-dependent components. Relevant risk factors are identified for each component and the identified relevant risk factors are separated for each component into static and dynamic risk factor groups. The weight of each risk factor is determined in the static and dynamic risk factor groups for each component. Static and dynamic security risks are calculated for each component.

Abstract: Search results are received from an initiated free text search of log data from one or more logs, where the free text is performed using search terms entered into a free text search graphical user interface. A set of at least one search result is selected from the search results containing an event desired to be identified in a completed enterprise threat detection (ETD) pattern. A forensic lab application is rendered to complete an ETD pattern. An event filter is added for an event type based on normalized log data to a path. A relative ETD pattern time range is set and an ETD pattern is completed based on the added event filter.

Abstract: Published enterprise threat detection (ETD) security notes are accessed in a computer data store. Applicability of the published ETD security notes are determined for an information technology computing (IT) landscape. A determination is made that a particular applicable ETD security note has not yet been implemented in the IT computing landscape. Aggregated impact of compromise (IoC) and state of compromise (SoC) values associated with the published ETD security note are analyzed and a computing system patching action is performed based on the aggregated IoC and SoC values.

Abstract: At least one of an HTTP request message and an HTTP response message is intercepted. A corresponding HTTP message model includes a plurality of message model sections. A representation of the at least one of an HTTP request message and an HTTP response message is parsed into message sections in accordance with the message model sections of the HTTP message model. A plurality of security rules are bounds to the message model sections. The plurality of security rules each specify at least one action to be taken in response to a given condition, which is based, at least in part, on a corresponding given one of the message sections. The at least one of an HTTP request message and an HTTP response message is processed in accordance with the plurality of security rules. Techniques for developing rules for a web application server firewall are also provided.

Abstract: Techniques for generating a personality trait model are described. According to an example, a system is provided that can generate text data and linguistic data, and apply psycholinguistic data to the text data and the linguistic data, resulting in updated text data and updated linguistic data. The system is further operable to combine the updated text data with the updated linguistic data to generate a personality trait model. In various embodiments, the personality trait model can be trained and updated as additional data is received from various inputs.

Abstract: Techniques are provided for automated privacy scoring of user information. In one example, a system comprises a memory that stores computer executable components, and a processor that executes computer executable components stored in the memory.

The computer executable components can also comprise a privacy enforcement component that implements one or more privacy features on the information based on the privacy score.

Abstract: An enterprise threat detection (ETD) forensic workspace is established according to a particular timeframe and permitting defining a selection of data types from available log data for an evaluation of events associated with one or more entities. A chart is defined illustrating a graphical distribution of a particular data type in the forensic workspace. A snapshot associated with the chart is generated, the snapshot saving a copy of all data necessary to re-create the chart into an associated snapshot object. The snapshot is associated with a snapshot page for containing the snapshot and the snapshot page is saved within the ETD forensic workspace.

Abstract: Subnet information and location information is received from a database by a smart data streaming engine (SDS). A particular subnet of the subnet information is associated with a particular location of the location information by a globally unique location ID value. Log event data received in the SDS is normalized as normalized log event data. The normalized log event data is enriched with subnet and location information as enriched log event data and written into a log event persistence in the database. A subnet ID value retrieved from an enriched log event of the enriched log event data is used by an enterprise threat detection (ETD) system to determine a location associated with the enriched log event using a location ID value associated with the subnet ID.

Abstract: A path associated with a set of selected log data is defined. An indication is received on a graphical user interface (GUI) to generate a bubblegram associated with the path, wherein the bubblegram comprises one or more bubbles, each bubble representing a particular dimension associated with the selected path. The one or more bubbles are rendered on the GUI according to a performed ranking of the one or more bubbles. A bubble is selected to generate a filter for the path based on the dimension associated with the bubble. A subsequent bubblegram is rendered based on a narrowed set of the selected log data.

Reducing reactivation time may, in turn, reduce costs, both in inventory and capital.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method generates a trigger registration for a selected triggering type. The generated trigger registration is stored in a triggering persistency. A received event from an event persistency is analyzed and data associated with the analyzed event is compared with the triggering persistency. Based on the comparison and using a pattern execution framework, an enterprise threat detection (ETD) pattern is processed to perform actions responsive to the received event.
