GTC Silicon Valley-2019 ID:S9802:Context-Aware Network Mapping and Asset Classification
Bartley Richardson(NVIDIA)
Traditional means of network mapping rely on expert knowledge, well-curated databases of network assets, and active internal scanning. Network maps are frequently out of date and often unable to provide the necessary ground-truth data to IT and security. We'll show how to leverage RAPIDS and GPU-Accelerated data science to learn a network mapping from passively generated logs. We'll discuss how we take this a step further by applying multiple machine learning analytics to the graph to infer asset ownership, classify assets and services on the network, and provide near real-time updates and alerts based on changes to the network topology. We'll explain how near real-time ingest and processing capabilities allow us to visualize the network quickly and provide context to the security professional in a timely manner.
