The method for obfuscating a string includes selecting, by a processor, a first string of a first portion of input plain text that does not match a predefined text signature from a set of two or more text signatures. In addition, the method may include identifying, by the processor, a historical string that is similar to the first string from a set of two or more historical strings stored. Further, the method may include generating a first text signature, by the processor, by updating a text signature in the set of two or more text signatures that matches the identified historical string. The first text signature defines a pattern that matches the first string and the identified historical string. The first text signature, by the processor, may be saved to the set of text signatures in the memory.

Adaptive data obfuscation

A method, system and computer-usable medium are disclosed for performing a device time accumulation operation. With a device time accumulation operation systems within a security intelligence platform which accumulate events within the IT environment associate an event ingest time with the event. When the events are provided for analysis, the device time accumulation operation analyzes the ingest times as well as the emit time to take into account historical time data associated with the accumulated events.
