Abstract
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.
