Advanced Investigation Platform

Abstract:

The Advanced Investigation Platform (AIP) allows users to search and analyse patterns in massive network data. The entire platform consists of four core levels: presentation, application, logic and data. The presentation tier consists of a web application that allows the user to define simple and advanced queries through a user interface or directly using scripting. The web application also supports the visualisation of query results and exposes the set of functionalities from the application level in the most user-friendly way. The latter implements an application programming interface (API) between the user and the logical level in the form of REST service queries. The logical level of the platform consists of access to the data level, security, authorisation, authentication, algorithms for statistical analysis and finding correlations in data patterns, and support for the addition of various external services that enable the platform to be extended (e.g. The data tier consists of various encrypted databases, such as a user database, a data grid database, a registered plug-in database, a database for replication and caching of query results, and a database for storing analytical results.
