A system, method, and computer-readable medium are disclosed for providing auditability of a distributed ledger technology (DLT) of de-identified data of entities, stored in the DLT. In certain embodiments, data related to an entity is de-identified. The de-identified data is stored in the DLT. Access to the de-identified data is determined. Instances of access to the de-identified data is recorded to the DLT. In certain embodiments, information used to re-identify the de-identified data is store on the DLT. Access to the information can also be determined and recorded to the DLT.

Re-identifying pseudonymized or de-identified data utilizing distributed ledger technology

A system, method, and computer-readable medium are disclosed for performing an entity behavior cataloging operation. The entity behavior cataloging operation includes: identifying a security related activity, the security related activity being based upon an observable from an electronic data source; analyzing the security related activity, the analyzing identifying an event of analytic utility associated with the security related activity; generating entity behavior catalog data based upon the event of analytic utility associated with the security related activity; and, storing the entity behavior catalog data within an entity behavior catalog, the entity behavior catalog providing an inventory of entity behaviors for use when performing a security operation.

Entity behavior catalog architecture

A system, method, and computer-readable medium are disclosed for performing a security operation. The security operation includes: monitoring an entity, the monitoring observing at least one electronically-observable data source; deriving an observable based upon the monitoring of the electronically-observable data source; identifying a security related activity of the entity, the security related activity being based upon the observable derived from the electronic data source, the security related activity being of analytic utility; converting the security related activity to entity behavior catalog data, the entity behavior catalog providing an inventory of entity behaviors; and, accessing an entity behavior catalog based upon the entity behavior catalog data; and performing a security operation via a security system, the security operation using the entity behavior catalog data stored within the entity behavior catalog based upon the security related activity.

Using an entity behavior catalog when performing security operations

A system, method, and computer-readable medium are disclosed for performing a security operation. The security operation includes: monitoring an entity, the monitoring observing at least one electronically-observable data source; deriving an observable based upon the monitoring of the electronically-observable data source; identifying a security related activity of the entity, the security related activity being based upon the observable derived from the electronic data source, the security related activity being of analytic utility; converting the security related activity to entity behavior catalog data, the entity behavior catalog providing an inventory of entity behaviors; accessing an entity behavior catalog based upon the entity behavior catalog data; inferring a security vulnerability scenario from the observable derived based upon the monitoring; and performing a security operation via a security system, the security operation using the security vulnerability scenario and the entity behavior catalog data stored within the entity behavior catalog based upon the security related activity.

Inferring a scenario when performing a security operation using an entity behavior catalog

A system, method, and computer-readable medium are disclosed for generating an adaptive trust profile, comprising: monitoring an electronically-observable action of an entity, the electronically-observable action of the entity corresponding to an event enacted by the entity; converting the electronically-observable action of the entity to electronic information representing the action of the entity; and generating the adaptive trust profile based upon the action of the entity, the adaptive trust profile being privacy enhanced.

Privacy and the adaptive trust profile

A system, method, and computer-readable medium are disclosed for generating an adaptive trust profile via an adaptive trust profile operation. In various embodiments the adaptive trust profile operation includes: monitoring an electronically-observable action of an entity, the electronically-observable action of the entity corresponding to an event enacted by the entity; converting the electronically-observable action of the entity to electronic information representing the action of the entity; generating an entity profile based upon the action of the entity; and, using the entity profile to generate the adaptive trust profile.

Adaptive trust profile reference architecture

A system, method, and computer-readable medium are disclosed for generating a prepopulated adaptive trust profile via an adaptive trust profile operation. In various embodiments the adaptive trust profile operation includes: receiving a request to generate prepopulated adaptive trust profiles for a plurality of entities within an organization; accessing adaptive trust profile data, the adaptive trust profile data comprising a plurality of adaptive trust profiles, the plurality of adaptive trust profiles being derived from adaptive trust profiles from a similarly situated organization; identifying an adaptive trust profile relevant to each of the plurality of entities; and, generating a respective adaptive trust profile for each of the plurality of entities using the adaptive trust profile relevant to the entity.

Generating adaptive trust profiles using information derived from similarly situated organizations

A system, method, and computer-readable medium are disclosed for generating a prepopulated adaptive trust profile via an adaptive trust profile operation. In various embodiments the adaptive trust profile operation includes: receiving a request to generate a prepopulated adaptive trust profile for a target entity; accessing adaptive trust profile data, the adaptive trust profile data comprising a plurality of adaptive trust profiles; identifying an adaptive trust profile relevant to the entity from the plurality of adaptive trust profiles, the adaptive trust profile relevant to the entity comprising at least one substantively similar entity characteristic to an entity characteristic of the target entity; and, generating an adaptive trust profile for the target entity using the adaptive trust profile relevant to the target entity.

Using expected behavior of an entity when prepopulating an adaptive trust profile

A system, method, and computer-readable medium are disclosed for using a behavioral fingerprint via a behavioral fingerprint operation. In various embodiments the behavioral fingerprint operation includes: monitoring an electronically-observable action of an entity, the electronically-observable action of the entity corresponding to an event enacted by the entity; converting the electronically-observable action of the entity to electronic information representing the action of the entity; generating the behavioral fingerprint based upon observations associated with the action of the entity; and, using the behavioral fingerprint in combination with an adaptive trust profile to generate an inference regarding the entity.

A configurator is provided with the ability to enable a customer to configure a system based upon selection of components to reside within the system. Based upon selected components, the customer is presented with systems in which the selected components can reside.

Option-based reverse configuration system by selecting an individual component

A configurator is provided with the ability to present a customer with information regarding desirable configuration bundles that are based upon specific intended use and to enable a customer to configure a system based upon the specific intended use. Additionally, based upon an indicated specific intended use, an information handling system manufacturer can optimize the configuration of the information handling system.

Use driven configurator and system optimization

Automated orientation of an image presented by a display, such as a projector, with the orientation of the display simplifies presentation of images generated by an information handling system. A display orientation sensor detects the orientation of a display so that a display orientation module automatically adjusts the orientation of an image presented by the display to align with the display orientation. For example, display orientation is sensed by an accelerometer associated with the display or by determining the attachment point of the display to a support.
