SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR AUTOMATICALLY CREATING NORMALIZED SECURITY EVENTS IN A CYBERSECURITY THREAT DETECTION AND MITIGATION PLATFORM

Filed:2025-07-10Pub:2026-01-15
Applicant:Expel, Inc.

A system, method, and computer-program product includes obtaining raw event data associated with a subscriber, automatically selecting an automated event ingestion instruction of a plurality of distinct automated event ingestion instructions for processing the raw event data, automatically generating a pre-normalized security event that includes the raw event data in a first structured data object in response to executing the automated event ingestion instruction, automatically transforming the pre-normalized security event to at least one normalized security event, automatically assessing a corpus of computer-executable detection instructions against the at least one normalized security event, generating a security alert based on the at least one normalized security event satisfying a set of alerting conditions of a subject computer-executable detection instruction of the corpus of computer-executable detection instructions, and executing a threat mitigation response that mitigates a security threat associated with the security alert.

Systems, methods, and graphical user interfaces for accelerating a construction of a data integration for a non-integrated technology data source

Filed:2024-06-20Pub:2025-06-17
Applicant:Expel, Inc.

A system, method, and computer-program product includes displaying, via a data integration building user interface, a plurality of integration-identifying user interface input elements configured to receive one or more strings of text for specifying a set of integration identification parameters that characterize an in-development security integration for a third-party security service, displaying, via the data integration building user interface, a signal-specific data mapping container based on receiving an input selecting a signal mapping addition control button of the data integration building user interface, displaying, via the data integration building user interface, a raw event simulation container based on receiving an input selecting a simulation addition control button of the data integration building user interface, and displaying, via the data integration building user interface, an integration deployment control element that, when operated, transitions the in-development security integration to a deployed security integration.
