Data is received as part of an authentication procedure to identify a user. Such data characterizes a user-generated biometric sequence that is generated by the user interacting with at least one input device according to a desired biometric sequence. Thereafter, using the received data and at least one machine learning model trained using empirically derived historical data generated by a plurality of user-generated biometric sequences (e.g., historical user-generated biometric sequences according to the desired biometric sequence, etc.), the user is authenticated if an output of the at least one machine learning model is above a threshold. Data can be provided that characterizes the authenticating. Related apparatus, systems, techniques and articles are also described.

Password-less software system user authentication

Each of a plurality of endpoint computer systems monitors data relating to a plurality of events occurring within an operating environment of the corresponding endpoint computer system. The monitoring can include receiving and/or inferring the data using one or more sensors executing on the endpoint computer systems Thereafter, for each endpoint computer system, artifacts used in connection with the events are stored in a vault maintained on such endpoint computer system. A query is later received by at least a subset of the plurality of endpoint computer systems from a server. Such endpoint computer systems, in response, identify and retrieve artifacts within the corresponding vaults response to the query. Results responsive to the query including or characterizing the identified artifacts is then provided by the endpoint computer systems receiving the query to the server.

Endpoint detection and response system with endpoint-based artifact storage

A plurality of events associated with each of a plurality of computing nodes that form part of a network topology are monitored. The network topology includes antivirus tools to detect malicious software prior to it accessing one of the computing nodes. Thereafter, it is determined that, using at least one machine learning model, at least one of the events is indicative of malicious activity that has circumvented or bypassed the antivirus tools. Data is then provided that characterizes the determination. Related apparatus, systems, techniques and articles are also described.

Endpoint detection and response utilizing machine learning

In one respect, there is provided a system for classifying malware. The system may include a data processor and a memory. The memory may include program code that provides operations when executed by the processor. The operations may include: providing, to a display, contextual information associated with a file to at least enable a classification of the file, when a malware classifier is unable to classify the file; receiving, in response to the providing of the contextual information, the classification of the file; and updating, based at least on the received classification of the file, the malware classifier to enable the malware classifier to classify the file. Methods and articles of manufacture, including computer program products, are also provided.

Advanced malware classification

An endpoint computer system monitors data relating to a plurality of events occurring within an operating environment of the endpoint computer system. The monitoring can include receiving and/or inferring the data using one or more sensors executing on the endpoint computer system. The endpoint computer system can store artifacts used in connection with the plurality of events in a vault maintained on such endpoint computer system. The endpoint computer system, in response to a trigger, identifies and retrieves metadata characterizing artifacts associated with the trigger from the vault. Such identified and retrieved metadata is then provided by the endpoint computer system to a remote server.
