Abstract

This disclosure is directed to detecting cybersecurity attacks in data processing systems. Methods, systems, and computer program products perform operations including determining baseline event clusters using baseline event data obtained from deterministic target systems. The operations also include determining a baseline cumulative trajectory of an event over time based on the baseline event clusters. The operations further include determining operational event clusters using operational event data from the deterministic target systems. Additionally, the operations include determining an operational cumulative trajectory of the event over time based on the operational event clusters. Further, the operations include detecting a cyber-attack by comparing the baseline cumulative trajectory of the event with the operational cumulative trajectory of the event.
