Abstract

In an implementation, a method for execution of security rules on a data network is described. The method includes steps of: sensing operations of the data network; generating event objects that record the operations of the data network; storing an event-timestamp that records a first time at which the operations were sensed; storing the event objects in a bulk-memory; storing a reception-timestamp that records a second time at which an event object was received for storage; identifying at least one security-rule to be run on matching event objects, the at least one security-rule specifying a time-length; identifying a time-window having a beginning-time before the event-timestamp and an end-time after the event-timestamp; generating an alert based on the run of the at least one security-rule on the matching event objects; and performing one or more security actions based on the alert to reduce an impact of a security threat.
