Abstract

Systems and methods are provided for obtaining information from at least one computing system, the information including a set of records that respectively identify at least a network-based address of a computing device that accessed the computing system and an account hosted by the computing system that was accessed using the computing device; determining at least a first account and a second account were accessed from one or more computing devices that share a given network-based address based at least in part on the obtained information; and associating the first account and the second account with the network-based address.

Claims (67)

1. A system comprising:

one or more processors; and

memory storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the system to perform:

obtaining log data from at least one computing system, the log data including a set of records that identifies Internet Protocol (IP) addresses of computing devices that accessed the at least one computing system and accounts hosted by the at least one computing system that were accessed by the computing devices and timestamps indicating respective times of access of the IP addresses;

determining, based at least in part on the obtained log data, that at least a first account was accessed from a computing device of the computing devices with an IP address of the IP addresses, and a time at which the first account was accessed based on the timestamps;

enriching the set of records to indicate whether the IP address has been permitted based on geolocation log data corresponding to the IP address and based on a type of traffic from devices assigned to the IP address;

in response to the IP address being permitted:

ingesting a report specifying that a second account was accessed using the IP address;

linking the second account and the first account with the IP address; and

flagging the linked first account and the second account to be reviewed based on the respective times that the first account and the second account were accessed.

2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the flagging further comprises:

flagging the linked first account, the second account, and the third account in response to determining that the first account, the second account, and the third account were accessed by the computing device within a specified timeframe.

3. The system of claim 1 , wherein the system further performs:

determining at least one record in the set of records that corresponds to a blocked IP address; and

removing the at least one record from the set of records.

4. The system of claim 1 , wherein the system further performs:

exporting data corresponding to the IP address to a data analysis tool for further evaluation.

5. The system of claim 4 , wherein the system further performs:

determining at least one object in an object model that corresponds to the IP address, the object model being managed by the data analysis tool.

6. The system of claim 1 , wherein the system further performs:

providing an interface through which the link between the first account and the second account is presented.

7. The system of claim 1 , wherein the enriching the set of records further comprises incorporating other extrinsic information.

8. The system of claim 7 , wherein the enriching the at least one record comprises:

identifying a first record in the set of records;

determining that the IP address associated with the first record is blocked; and

associating the first record with information that indicates the IP address is blocked.

9. The system of claim 7 , wherein enriching the at least one record comprises:

identifying a first record in the set of records;

determining geolocation log data associated with the IP address associated with the first record; and

associating the geolocation log data with the first record.

10. The system of claim 1 , wherein the system further performs:

obtaining a set of financial reports from the at least one computing system, each financial report specifying one or more IP addresses used to access one or more financial accounts; and

determining at least a pair of financial accounts that were accessed by the computing device with the IP address.

11. A computer-implemented method, the method comprising:

obtaining log data from at least one computing system, the log data including a set of records that identifies Internet Protocol (IP) addresses of computing devices that accessed the at least one computing system and accounts hosted by the at least one computing system that were accessed by the computing devices and timestamps indicating respective times of access of the IP addresses;

determining, based at least in part on the obtained log data, that at least a first account was accessed from a computing device of the computing devices with an IP address of the IP addresses, and a time at which the first account was accessed based on the timestamps;

enriching the set of records to indicate whether the IP address has been permitted based on geolocation log data corresponding to the IP address and based on a type of traffic from devices assigned to the IP address;

in response to the IP address being permitted:

ingesting a report specifying that a second account was accessed using the IP address;

linking the second account and the first account with the IP address; and

flagging the linked first account and the second account to be reviewed based on the respective times that the first account and the second account were accessed.

12. The computer-implemented method of claim 11 , wherein the flagging further comprises:

flagging the linked first account, the second account, and the third account in response to determining that the first account, the second account, and the third account were accessed by the computing device within a specified timeframe.

13. The computer-implemented method of claim 11 , further comprising:

determining at least one record in the set of records that corresponds to a blocked IP address; and

removing the at least one record from the set of records.

14. The computer-implemented method of claim 11 , further comprising:

exporting data corresponding to the IP address to a data analysis tool for further evaluation.

15. The computer-implemented method of claim 14 , wherein the system further performs:

determining at least one object in an object model that corresponds to the IP address, the object model being managed by the data analysis tool.

16. A non-transitory computer readable medium comprising instructions that, when executed, cause one or more processors to perform:

obtaining log data from at least one computing system, the log data including a set of records that identifies Internet Protocol (IP) addresses of computing devices that accessed the at least one computing system and accounts hosted by the at least one computing system that were accessed by the computing devices and timestamps indicating respective times of access of the IP addresses;

determining, based at least in part on the obtained log data, that at least a first account was accessed from a computing device of the computing devices with an IP address of the IP addresses, and a time at which the first account was accessed based on the timestamps;

enriching the set of records to indicate whether the IP address has been permitted based on geolocation log data corresponding to the IP address and based on a type of traffic from devices assigned to the IP address;

in response to the IP address being permitted:

ingesting a report specifying that a second account was accessed using the IP address;

linking the second account and the first account with the IP address; and

flagging the linked first account and the second account to be reviewed based on the respective times that the first account and the second account were accessed.

17. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 16 , wherein the flagging further comprises:

flagging the linked first account, the second account, and the third account in response to determining that the first account, the second account, and the third account were accessed by the computing device within a specified timeframe.

18. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 16 , wherein the instructions, when executed, further cause the processors to perform:

determining at least one record in the set of records that corresponds to a blocked IP address; and

removing the at least one record from the set of records.

19. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 16 , wherein the instructions, when executed, further cause the processors to perform:

exporting data corresponding to the IP address to a data analysis tool for further evaluation.

20. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 19 , wherein the instructions, when executed, further cause the processors to perform:
