A method at an analytics module on a computing device, the analytics module being at a tier within a hierarchy of analytics modules and data sources, the method including receiving a first data set from a data source or a lower tier analytics module; analyzing the first data set to create a second data set; providing the second data set to at least one higher tier analytics module, the second data set being derived from the first data set; and providing at least one of an inference and an interdiction to the lower tier analytics module.

Method and system for a dynamic data collection and context-driven actions

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

An endpoint computer system can harvest data relating to a plurality of events occurring within an operating environment of the endpoint computer system and can add the harvested data to a local data store maintained on the endpoint computer system. In some examples, the local data store can be an audit log and/or can include one or more tamper resistant features. Systems, methods, and computer program products are described.

Retention and accessibility of data characterizing events on an endpoint computer

An endpoint computer system can harvest data relating to a plurality of events occurring within an operating environment of the endpoint computer system and can add the harvested data to a local data store maintained on the endpoint computer system. A query response can be generated, for example by identifying and retrieving responsive data from the local data store. The responsive data are related to an artifact on the endpoint computer system and/or to an event of the plurality of events. In some examples, the local data store can be an audit log and/or can include one or more tamper resistant features. Systems, methods, and computer program products are described.

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.
