Publication number: 20240144075Abstract: One or more iterations are performed. Each iteration includes calculating, for each of a number of data points that each have a label probability distribution, a label quality measure based on the label probability distribution of the data point. Each iteration includes updating the label probability distribution of each of at least one of the data points using either or both of a classification technique and a constrained clustering technique based on the data points and the label quality measure of each data point.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 28, 2022Publication date: May 2, 2024Inventors: Manish Marwah, Hari Manassery Koduvely, Mahsa Khosravi, Maria Pospelova, Martin Fraser Arlitt

Publication number: 20240007356Abstract: Network traffic is monitored over a period of time (e.g., network traffic of a corporate network). Based on the monitored network traffic: an abstract temporal graph of the network traffic is generated; graph-based node embeddings of the abstract temporal graph are learned; edge tabular embeddings for edges of the abstract temporal graph are learned; and hybrid embeddings are computed. The computed hybrid embeddings are based on the learned graph-based node embeddings for the abstract temporal graph and the learned edge tabular embedding for the edges of the abstract temporal graph. This process is then repeated over multiple time periods and temporal trajectories are computed using the computed hybrid embeddings for each time period. The temporal trajectories are then used for analysis of the network. For example, the temporal trajectories are used to identify anomalies for prevention of security breaches of the network.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 1, 2022Publication date: January 4, 2024Applicant: MICRO FOCUS LLCInventors: MANISH MARWAH, MARTIN FRASER ARITT

Publication number: 20230353586Abstract: For each item represented within log events that have a power law-oriented distribution, first and second metrics for the item are computed based on the log events which pertain to the item. The items are organized over bins according to the first metric. The bins correspond to different ranges of the first metric. For each bin, the items in the bin are ordered according to the second metric. A plot of the bins over which the items have been organized according to the first metric, is graphically displayed, which includes displaying, for each bin, the items in the bin as have been ordered according to the second metric.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 28, 2022Publication date: November 2, 2023Inventors: Martin Fraser Arlitt, Manish Marwah, Mark Kendall Vaszary

Publication number: 20230171268Abstract: A security rule associated with an application is identified. This may be done continuously and verified using machine learning models to ensure that the environment characterized by the data has not changed. For example, a security rule may be which ports are open/closed on a firewall. In response to identifying the security rule associated with the application, a security test based on the security rule is generated. For example, the security test may be to test all the ports on the firewall to see which ports are open/closed. The security test against the application is executed to determine if the security rule has been implemented properly by the application.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 30, 2021Publication date: June 1, 2023Applicant: MICRO FOCUS LLCInventors: Manish Marwah, Martin Fraser Arlitt

Publication number: 20230032678Abstract: Log entries and baseline log entries have timestamps, and can be structured over columns of respective data types. Temporal inconsistency can be identified by comparing a probability distribution of time differences between the timestamps of the log entries with a probability distribution of time differences between the timestamps of the baseline log entries. Data type inconsistency can be identified by comparing a data type of each column of the log entries with a data type of a corresponding column of the baseline log entries. Columnar inconsistency can be identified by comparing a number of the columns of the log entries with a number of the columns of the baseline log entries. In response to identification of temporal, data type, and/or columnar inconsistency, that an abnormality exists in collecting the log entries is detected.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 29, 2021Publication date: February 2, 2023Inventors: Manish Marwah, Martin Arlitt

Patent number: 11463331Abstract: Network communication events are filtered to remove the network communication events having a predicted unrelatedness to beaconing. Each network communication event has a timestamp, a source entity, and a destination entity. The filtered network communication events are aggregated by unique source entity-destination entity pairs. For each unique source entity-destination entity pair, the network communication events are timestamp-sorted, time differentials between the timestamps of adjacent network communication events are calculated, and a beacon likelihood metric is calculated from the calculated time differentials. Which of the unique source entity-destination entity pairs are indicative of beaconing are identified based on the beacon likelihood metric calculated for each unique source entity-destination entity pair.Type: GrantFiled: May 27, 2021Date of Patent: October 4, 2022Assignee: MICRO FOCUS LLCInventors: Martin Arlitt, Mijung Kim, Manish Marwah
