SECURITY ASSESSMENT OF SERVICES BEING MIGRATED TO A CLOUD PLATFORM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240259415 titled 'SECURITY ASSESSMENT OF SERVICES BEING MIGRATED TO A CLOUD PLATFORM
Simplified Explanation: The system described in the patent application performs security assessments of services, such as those being migrated to virtual datacenters on a cloud platform, by clustering services based on risk profiles and using machine learning models to predict security assessments for new services.
- The system receives risk profiles of services
- Clusters services to determine security assessment categories for new services
- Trains a machine learning model to predict security assessments
- Recommends or automatically takes actions based on security assessments, such as configuring firewalls for services
Key Features and Innovation:
- Utilizes clustering of services based on risk profiles for security assessment
- Incorporates machine learning models for predicting security assessments
- Provides recommendations or automatically takes actions based on security assessments
Potential Applications:
- Cloud security assessment for services being migrated
- Automated security configuration for new services
- Risk-based security categorization for services
Problems Solved:
- Streamlines security assessment process for migrating services
- Enhances security measures for new services on cloud platforms
- Improves efficiency in determining security categories for services
Benefits:
- Increased accuracy in security assessments
- Time-saving through automation of security actions
- Enhanced overall security posture for services on cloud platforms
Commercial Applications: Cloud security companies can utilize this technology to offer enhanced security assessment services for clients migrating to virtual datacenters on cloud platforms, improving overall security measures and compliance.
Questions about Cloud Security Assessment: 1. How does the system determine the risk profiles of services? 2. What are the potential implications of using machine learning models for predicting security assessments in cloud environments?
Original Abstract Submitted
a system performs security assessment of services, for example, services being migrated from first party datacenters to virtual datacenters configured on a cloud platform. the system receives information describing risk profiles of services. the system performs clustering of the services and uses the clusters of services for determining security assessment categories for new services. the system may train a machine learning model and use the trained machine learning model for predicting security assessment of new services. the system may recommend actions to be taken based on the security assessment or automatically take action, for example, configuring a firewall for a service.
