A computer-implemented method receives a program code and a signature associated with the program code from a database persistency associated with an enterprise threat detection (ETD) system. The received program code is associated with a configuration check, and the configuration check is developed at a development computing system and can collect information associated with a computing system. The received program code and the signature associated with the program code is distributed to a plurality of computing systems that are monitored by the ETD system. At least one configuration check result is received, and the configuration check result is generated by executing the program code on the computing system. The at least one configuration check result then transmitted to the database persistence, and the at least one result is displayed on a database graphical user interface (GUI) associated with the database persistency.

Real-time configuration check framework

Search results are received from an initiated free text search of log data from one or more logs, where the free text is performed using search terms entered into a free text search graphical user interface. A set of at least one search result is selected from the search results containing an event desired to be identified in a completed enterprise threat detection (ETD) pattern. A forensic lab application is rendered to complete an ETD pattern. An event filter is added for an event type based on normalized log data to a path. A relative ETD pattern time range is set and an ETD pattern is completed based on the added event filter.

Pattern creation in enterprise threat detection

A computer-implemented method generates a trigger registration for a selected triggering type. The generated trigger registration is stored in a triggering persistency. A received event from an event persistency is analyzed and data associated with the analyzed event is compared with the triggering persistency. Based on the comparison and using a pattern execution framework, an enterprise threat detection (ETD) pattern is processed to perform actions responsive to the received event.

Realtime triggering framework

One or more entities are selected for which logged Events are to be displayed in an Event Series Chart. One or more filters and a timeframe are selected. Events are fetched from one or more selected log files based on the one or more selected filters and the timeframe. The fetched Events are displayed in an Event Series Chart according to an associated timestamp and identification Event property value associated with each fetched Event.

Displaying a series of events along a time axis in enterprise threat detection

A first Event is identified from a normalized log persistency layer, where the first Event is associated with an attack on a computing system. A plurality of Events are fetched from the normalized log persistency layer, where each fetched Event correlates with its neighboring fetched Event by at least one correlation attribute, and each of the fetched Event and the first Event are presented on a graphical user interface as a chain of events. A workspace is generated, where the workspace comprises a series of attack paths, where each attack path corresponds to one Event in the chain of events. An ETD pattern is created based on the attack paths in the workspace.

Pattern creation based on an attack path

A filter is selected from one or more filters defined for an ETD Network Graph. Events are fetched from the selected log files based on the selected filter and entities identified based on the fetched Events. Relationships are determined between the identified entities, and the determined relationships and identified entities are displayed in the ETD Network Graph. An identified entity is selected to filter data in an ETD Event Series Chart. An Event is selected in the ETD Event Series Chart to display Event Attributes in an Event Attribute Dialog. An Event Attribute is selected in the Event Attribute Dialog to filter Events in the ETD Event Series Chart.

Analysis of complex relationships among information technology security-relevant entities using a network graph

An enterprise threat detection (ETD) forensic workspace is established according to a particular timeframe and permitting defining a selection of data types from available log data for an evaluation of events associated with one or more entities. A chart is defined illustrating a graphical distribution of a particular data type in the forensic workspace. A snapshot associated with the chart is generated, the snapshot saving a copy of all data necessary to re-create the chart into an associated snapshot object. The snapshot is associated with a snapshot page for containing the snapshot and the snapshot page is saved within the ETD forensic workspace.

Subnet information and location information is received from a database by a smart data streaming engine (SDS). A particular subnet of the subnet information is associated with a particular location of the location information by a globally unique location ID value. Log event data received in the SDS is normalized as normalized log event data. The normalized log event data is enriched with subnet and location information as enriched log event data and written into a log event persistence in the database. A subnet ID value retrieved from an enriched log event of the enriched log event data is used by an enterprise threat detection (ETD) system to determine a location associated with the enriched log event using a location ID value associated with the subnet ID.

Location enrichment in enterprise threat detection

A path associated with a set of selected log data is defined. An indication is received on a graphical user interface (GUI) to generate a bubblegram associated with the path, wherein the bubblegram comprises one or more bubbles, each bubble representing a particular dimension associated with the selected path. The one or more bubbles are rendered on the GUI according to a performed ranking of the one or more bubbles. A bubble is selected to generate a filter for the path based on the dimension associated with the bubble. A subsequent bubblegram is rendered based on a narrowed set of the selected log data.

Visualization of data distributed in multiple dimensions

Published enterprise threat detection (ETD) security notes are accessed in a computer data store. Applicability of the published ETD security notes are determined for an information technology computing (IT) landscape. A determination is made that a particular applicable ETD security note has not yet been implemented in the IT computing landscape. Aggregated impact of compromise (IoC) and state of compromise (SoC) values associated with the published ETD security note are analyzed and a computing system patching action is performed based on the aggregated IoC and SoC values.

Real-time evaluation of impact- and state-of-compromise due to vulnerabilities described in enterprise threat detection security notes

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for facilitating communication between enterprise software applications. Some enterprise software systems communicate using a message protocol designed for use with an exchange system. Those systems require the exchange system to communicate using that message protocol. To communicate with systems using that message protocol, a local system can build a message formatted in accordance with the message protocol, even without an exchange system. The local system stores configuration data and uses the configuration data to build the message.
