Embodiments disclosed herein identify a first data asset that is associated with a non-optimized security configuration, based at least in part on metadata associated with the first data asset. Additionally, an optimized security configuration is generated for the first data asset by processing the metadata associated with the first data asset using one or more machine learning models. Furthermore, the optimized security configuration is applied to the first data asset.

Dynamic data asset security using cognitive data analysis

The present invention may then include predicting one or more resources. The present invention may lastly include caching the one or more predicted resources.

Resource pre-caching and tenant workflow recognition using cloud audit records

A method for modeling dependencies in a computing system including a plurality of resources, the method includes generating usage data based on data communications in a computing environment between a first resource and a second resource; determining resource relationship data for the first resource and the second resource including the usage data; and computing a measure of bonding between the first resource and the second resource based, at least in part, on recency of the data communications.

Modeling computer network topology based on dynamic usage relationships

A method for modeling dependencies in a computing system including a plurality of resources, the method includes monitoring data communications made between the resources of the plurality of resources; modeling dependencies, at least among and between the resources, based, at least in part, upon the monitored data communications; and generating a set of topology graph(s), including at least a first topology graph, based upon the modeled dependencies.

A method for calculating the effect of an action on a network includes creating a mapping of a plurality of devices of a networked computing environment. In one embodiment, the mapping describes a relationship between a primary device and at least one device of the plurality of devices. In another embodiment, the method includes determining a plurality of potential actions to be performed on the primary device. In a further embodiment, the method includes calculating an effect of a potential action of the plurality of potential actions on the plurality of devices in response to simulating performing the potential action on the primary device. In yet another embodiment, the method includes performing an optimization action in response to calculating the effect of the potential action. In certain embodiments, the optimization action maximizes availability of the networked computing environment.
