US Patent 10432671 Dynamic policy injection and access visualization for threat detection

The present disclosure relates generally to threat detection, and more particularly, to techniques for analyzing security events using dynamic policies and displaying a consolidated view of active threats and user activity including the dynamic policies being triggered by the active threats and user activity. Some aspects are directed to the concept of a policy bus for injecting and communicating the dynamic policies to multiple enforcement entities and the ability of the entities to respond to the policies dynamically. Other aspects are directed providing a consolidated view of active threat categories, a count of policies being triggered for each threat category, and associated trends. Yet other aspects are directed to providing a consolidated view of users, applications being accessed by users, and the access policies, if any, implicated by the such accesses.
