A system and method for protection of Web based applications are described. The techniques described provide an enterprise wide approach to preventing attacks of Web based applications. Individual computer networks within the enterprise monitor network traffic to identify anomalous traffic. The anomalous traffic can be identified by comparing the traffic to a profile of acceptable user traffic when interacting with the application. The anomalous traffic, or security events, identified at the individual computer networks are communicated to a central security manager. The central security manager correlates the security events at the individual computer networks to determine if there is an enterprise wide security threat. The central security manager can then communicate instructions to the individual computer networks so as to provide an enterprise wide solution to the threat

A grid-based approach for enterprise-scale data mining that leverages database technology for I / O parallelism and on-demand compute servers for compute parallelism in the statistical computations is described. By enterprise-scale, we mean the highly-automated use of data mining in vertical business applications, where the data is stored on one or more relational database systems, and where a distributed architecture comprising of high-performance compute servers or a network of low-cost, commodity processors, is used to improve application performance, provide better quality data mining models, and for overall workload management. The approach relies on an algorithmic decomposition of the data mining kernel on the data and compute grids, which provides a simple way to exploit the parallelism on the respective grids, while minimizing the data transfer between them. The overall approach is compatible with existing standards for data mining task specification and results reporting in databases, and hence applications using these standards-based interfaces do not require any modification to realize the benefits of this grid-based approach.
