Haystax was an early pioneer in the use of sophisticated analytic techniques for enterprise threat management. The paper, titled Processing Events in Probabilistic Risk Assessment provides a smarter analytic approach to continuous risk monitoring as an alternative to current (mostly ineffective) brute-force rules based systems. The paper examines the application of a risk based approach to threat detection through insider threat detection use cases that include both infrequent (public records monitoring) and frequent (computer network monitoring) events. The techniques discussed in the paper have proven to be highly effective in environments where human resources are overwhelmed in high noise-to-signal data environments. The paper will be available as part of the conference proceedings. STIDS provides a forum for academia, government and industry to share the latest research on semantic technology for defense, intelligence and security applications.
