Abstract

An automated method for processing security events begins upon receipt of information representing an offense. Based in part on context data extracted from the offense, an offense context graph is built. The offense context graph comprises nodes and edges, with an edge therein representing a relationship between a pair of nodes, at least one of the nodes being a root node representing an entity associated with the offense. The method then continues by mining information about other events that are determined to share a local contextual relationship with the offense represented by the offense context graph. This operation generates an enriched offense context graph. The enriched offense context graph is then pruned to identify an offense context for further examination. Pruning may involve applying a metric to events associated with the offense and removing nodes that, based on evaluation of the metric, do not contribute to the offense.
