Patent ID: 10574700

Abstract:
A computer-implemented method for managing computer security of client computing machines may include (i) monitoring a set of client computing devices, (ii) receiving security data on sets of security-related events from each client computing device in the set of client computing devices, (iii) clustering the sets of security-related events by calculating a dissimilarity value, for each set of security-related events, that indicates a uniqueness of the set of security-related events in relation to other sets of security-related events using a dissimilarity function and adjusting the dissimilarity function based on a homogeneity of clusters of sets of security-related events, (iv) determining, based on clustering the sets of security-related events by the dissimilarity value, that a set of security-related events comprises an anomaly, and (v) performing a security action in response to determining that the set of security-related events comprises the anomaly. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.
