VISUALLY INTUITIVE INTERACTIVE NETWORK CYBER DEFENSE

摘要

Network security management technology as disclosed herein generates and dynamically updates an intuitive, interactive visualization of a computer network in live operation. The network security management technology interprets human user interactions, such as gestures, as network directives. The network directives may be implemented by the network in response to security events.

主权项

1. A network security management system comprising one or more computing devices configured to:
determine a current context of a computer network in live operation; generate an interactive visualization of the network, the interactive visualization comprising a plurality of graphical elements arranged to depict the current context of the network, at least one of the graphical elements indicative of a network security event detected on the network; initiate display of the interactive visualization by a display device; interpret a gesture-based user interaction with the computing system in relation to at least one of the graphical elements of the interactive visualization as a network security directive responsive to the network security event; and convert the network security directive to a set of instructions executable by one or more switching devices of the computer network.
