Abstract
Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for transforming representations of network activity data. A data structure that represents communication events between computing devices of one or more networks is received. The data structure is analyzed and a set of potential attack paths represented in the data structure is determined. A score is assigned to each potential attack path in the set of potential attack paths. Potential attack paths that have scores that do not meet a predetermined threshold are removed from the set of potential attack paths. Potential attack paths that remain in the set of potential attack paths are ranked, based on each score assigned to each potential attack path, and the data structure that includes a ranked set of potential attack paths is provided.
