Abstract

A system is in communication with a managed infrastructure comprising. At least a first engine one engine receives message data from managed infrastructure that includes managed infrastructure physical hardware that supports the flow and processing of information. The at least first engine one engine determines common characteristics of events, and produces clusters of events relating to the failure of errors in the managed infrastructure. A second engine uses a source address for each of an event and a graph topology of the managed infrastructure that represents a node to node connectivity and a graph coordinate for each of an event, with an optional subset of attributes extracted for each of an event. The second engine provides a list of connections between components or nodes in the managed infrastructure. A display computer system has a collaborative interface (UI) accessible by at least two parties for situations relative to clustered messages relating to the managed infrastructure. The collaborative interface allows the at least two parties to take an action relative to a clustered message. In response to production of the clusters, one or more physical changes in a managed infrastructure hardware is made. In response to the production of the clusters, security of the managed infrastructure is maintained.

Claims (25)

1. A system in communication with a managed infrastructure comprising:

at least a first engine one engine configured to receive message data from managed infrastructure that includes managed infrastructure physical hardware that supports the flow and processing of information, the at least first engine one engine configured to determine common characteristics of events and produce clusters of events relating to the failure of errors in the managed infrastructure;

a second engine using a source address for each of an event and a graph topology of the managed infrastructure that represents a node to node connectivity and a graph coordinate for each of an event, with an optional subset of attributes extracted for each of an event, the second engine providing a list of connections between components or nodes in the managed infrastructure;

a display computer system with a collaborative interface (UI) accessible by at least two parties for situations relative to clustered messages relating to the managed infrastructure; and

wherein in response to production of the clusters one or more physical changes in a managed infrastructure hardware is made, where the hardware supports the flow and processing of information, and in response to production of the clusters security of the managed infrastructure is maintained.

2. The system of claim 1 , wherein security includes at least one of managed infrastructure: breach, intrusion or propagation.

3. The system of claim 1 , wherein security includes managed infrastructure: access control, intrusion detection and threat propagation.

4. The system of claim 1 , wherein security includes authentication of a subject.

5. The system of claim 1 , wherein security includes authorization of a subject.

6. The system of claim 5 , wherein authorization specifies what a subject can do.

7. The system of claim 1 , wherein security includes audit.

8. The system of claim 1 , where security includes identification and authentication to ensure that only authorized subjects can access the managed infrastructure.

9. The system of claim 1 , wherein security includes access approval grants to the managed infrastructure by association of users with resources that they are allowed to access, based on an authorization policy.

10. The system of claim 1 , wherein the UI is configured to reduce a number of actions a user makes relative management of the physical hardware managed infrastructure.

11. The system of claim 1 , wherein the UI is configured to allow one or more users to execute incident management with or without collaborative interactivity relative to physical hardware managed infrastructure.

12. The system of claim 1 , wherein the UI is configured to provide one or more users to execute incident management relative to physical hardware managed infrastructure with or without collaborative interactivity in a situation room that is executed using the UI.

13. The system of claim 3 , wherein the UI provides a summary view; a top level, and a UI relative to physical hardware managed infrastructure open situations.

14. The system of claim 13 , wherein the UI is configured to display physical hardware managed infrastructure services that can be impacted.

15. The system of claim 1 , further comprising:

interface logic configured to allow business application software to export application data to be displayed at the UI in an interactive visual format.

16. The system of claim 1 , wherein the UI is configured to use real time data.

17. The system of claim 16 , wherein the real time data is from a single or multiple source.

18. The system of claim 16 , wherein the real time data is from one or more businesses.

19. The system of claim 1 , wherein the UI includes one or more data fields within a file.

20. The system of claim 1 , wherein the UI is configured to provide a graphical representation of data from one or more data sources and information from the one or more data fields.
