Abstract
Automatically identifying join keys to correlate events is provided. A group of fields of a plurality of fields corresponding to a plurality of events having a percentage of cardinality and entropy of values greater than a defined threshold percentage level for the cardinality and the entropy is identified as a group of join keys corresponding to the plurality of events that occurred within a defined timeframe. It is determined which particular join keys of the group of join keys corresponding to the plurality of events that occurred within the defined timeframe are common join keys among the plurality of events. Pairs of events in the plurality of events that occurred within the defined timeframe are correlated based on the common join keys between each pair of events to form a set of correlated event pairs for detecting threats.
