Application: Framework for investigating events (Patent ID: US20230421581A1)
The patent filed by ForeScout Technologies Inc. describes a method for analyzing events associated with a network to identify and prioritize issues or incidents based on correlations between these events. The method involves determining the priority of an issue by considering the event type, with operational technology (OT) entities being given higher priority. The data related to the identified issues is then stored for further analysis and action. The system described in the patent includes a processing device and memory to carry out these event correlation and prioritization tasks efficiently.
Furthermore, the patent outlines various aspects of the correlation process, including aggregating, clustering, or pattern matching events to identify potential threats or risks within the network. It also considers factors such as device criticality and relationships between network entities to determine the priority of issues. The patent also covers the use of intrusion detection systems and various types of network events, such as alerts, log entries, and configuration changes, in the correlation process. Overall, the patent provides a comprehensive method and system for effectively managing and addressing network incidents based on event correlations and priorities.
