Abstract
Disclosed herein is a system for predicting, given a pattern of triggered alerts, a next alert in order to identify malicious activity that is about to occur on resource(s) being monitored by a security operations center. A resource can include a server, a storage device, a user device (e.g., a personal computer, a tablet computer, a smartphone, etc.), a virtual machine, networking equipment, etc. Accordingly, the next alert is speculatively triggered in advance and a security analyst can be notified of a pattern of activity that is likely to be malicious. The security analyst can then investigate the pattern of triggered alerts and the speculatively triggered alert to determine whether steps to mitigate the malicious activity before it occurs should be taken.
