Abstract: A computer security method for analyzing data sets for remediating security incidents in a cloud-based response system. Logs of data are retrieved from a computer network. The logs of data are parsed and filtered into the data sets. The logs of data are filtered by creating an event timeline of the computer network by identifying events from the data sets. An event timeline of the computer network is analyzed from the data sets to identify whether data from the logs of data is accessed by an unauthorized computing system. Based on a result of the identification of whether data from the logs of data is accessed by an unauthorized computing system, a set of suggested tasks, wherein each suggested task of the set of suggested tasks represents techniques for isolating a host connected to the computer network if the data has been compromised.

Abstract: Provided are mechanisms and processes for computational risk analysis and intermediation. Security practices information characterizing security measures in place at a first computing system may be received from the first computing system via a network. Computing services interaction information characterizing data transmitted from a second computing system to the first computing system may be received from the second computing system via the network. A processor may determine a risk profile for the first computing system based on the security practices information. Based on the risk profile and the computing services interaction information, the processor may then determine an estimate of the information security risk associated with transmitting the data from the second computing system to the first computing system. A risk assessment message including the estimate of the information security risk may be transmitted to the second computing system.
