The patent application (Publication Number: US20240039699A1) describes a method for identifying similar transactions in a computing environment. The method involves receiving a graph representing a current computer transaction, generating a signature of interest from the graph, comparing it to stored signatures derived from previous transactions, and identifying similar transactions based on the comparison. The signature of interest is created by extracting data features from the graph, generating random numbers, creating permutations, and selecting specific numbers to form the signature. The process aims to preserve the connection structure of the graph and efficiently identify similar transactions.

Furthermore, the method extends to identifying similar visits to a monitored application in a computing environment. By receiving a graph representing a sequence of computer transactions executed from a web browser, generating a signature of interest, comparing it to stored signatures, and identifying similar sequences of transactions, the method enhances monitoring capabilities. The extraction of data features, generation of random numbers, and selection process contribute to forming the signature of interest. The method's application in monitoring and analyzing user interactions within a computing environment showcases its potential for improving transaction identification and analysis processes efficiently.
