Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for implementing deception networks. One of the systems includes a threat information server configured to monitor and control security threats, a management process orchestration server configured to receive one or more identified security threats from the threat information server and develop a response process applicable to each identified security threat, a network switching controller in communication with one or more network switching devices, a target computing device connected to one of the network switching devices, and an indicator analytics processor configured to generate threat intelligence based on activity observed on the target device and provide the observed threat intelligence to the threat information server. The threat information server can receive threat intelligence information, identify key indicators, and generate identified security threats. The network switching controller can implement network topology changes in response to received instructions.

Deception network system

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for determining network related anomaly scores. One of the methods includes generating a network map including at least a plurality of network nodes and a plurality of edges that indicate communications paths between the plurality of network nodes, obtaining first data indicating network activity over the edges and between the plurality of network nodes for a first time period, generating a model of expected network activity over the edges and between the plurality of network nodes for a future time period using the network map and the first data, obtaining second data indicating network activity over the edges and between the plurality of network nodes for a second time period, and determining an anomaly score using a comparison between the second data and the model of expected network activity.

Network anomaly detection

According to an example, a method for data trend analysis may include retrieving data from data sources, associating the data with a time, and identifying co-occurrences of terms and concepts within the data. In response to determining that co-occurrences of term and concept pairs reach a predefined threshold, the method may include adding the term and concept pairs to an ontology. The method may include logging occurrences of terms in the ontology within the data with respect to associated data times, identifying a plurality of time periods, and for one of the plurality of time periods and for the logged terms, determining a first score indicative of a weighted term frequency metric for a logged term within the data during the one time period, and determining a second score indicative of a commonality of a presence of the logged term within the data among the plurality of time periods.
