US Patent 10986114 Graph-based user tracking and threat detection

Log data associated with at least one user session in a network environment associated with an original user is received. A logical graph is generated using at least a portion of the received log data. One example of such a logical graph is a privilege change graph that models privilege changes between processes. Another example of such a logical graph is a user login graph that models machines with which the original user interacts. Another example of such a logical graph is a machine-server graph that clusters machines into nodes based on resources executing on the machine. The generated logical graph is used to detect an anomaly.
