  • Patent number: 11743278
    Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for computing network operations. For example, methods may include receiving, at a computing device located within a private network, a message sent from a server located outside of the private network, the message including an observable; invoking, within the private network, a search of data associated with the private network to obtain a search result that includes data matching the observable; aggregating, within the private network, data from the search result that matches the observable to obtain a report that includes an indication of the observable, a count of occurrences of the observable, and identification of one or more components associated with the observable; and transmitting the report to the server.

  • Patent number: 11575703
    Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for obtaining network security threat information and mitigating threats to improve computing network operations. For example, methods may include receiving a message from a central instance; from outside of a private network, invoking a search of data associated with the private network, wherein the search is based on the message and the search is performed by an agent device within the private network; receiving a search result of the search from the agent device; transmitting the search result to the central instance, wherein the central instance is configured to generate network security threat information based in part on the search result and share the network security threat information with a plurality of customer instances that are associated with a group of customers; and receiving an alert message from the central instance, wherein the alert message includes information that identifies a network security threat.
