Abstract
Mechanisms for performing advanced rule analysis are provided. The mechanisms perform natural language processing of a security rule set data structure, specifying a plurality of security rules. The mechanisms execute, for each security rule pairing, a determination of a similarity measure indicating a degree of similarity of the textual description of the first security rule in the pairing with the textual description of the second security rule in the pairing, and in response to the security measure being equal to or above duplicate rule threshold value, eliminating one of the first security rule or the second security rule in the pairing from the security rule set data structure to generate a modified security rule set data structure. The mechanisms deploy the modified security rule set data structure to a computing environment for use in identifying security incidents and performing event management.
