We have released version 2.0.0 of our Multi-Agent Ranking Framework Python client!

We have worked hard to advance the development of the Multi-Agent Ranking Framework (MARk), establishing a solid foundation for our research into advanced cyber attacks. Originally, the MARk framework is implemented in the Java programming language, but offers API capabilities, opening up the possibility to develop extensions in other programming languages. Indeed, we have previously worked on a Python based implementation for the purpose of the analysis of the results produced by the MARk framework and the generation of different visualizations of these results. With the advancement of MARk, we needed to update the Python client too. At this moment, we have published the MARk Python client version 2.0.0 to PyPi for public use!

The major changes that have been brought to the new release of the Python client are:

  • Support for MARk version 2.6.0
  • Transitioned from Python 2 to Python 3
  • Support for the majority of the methods accessible via the MARk API
  • Robust Unit Testing
  • Possible Command Line tool for the MARk python client

More information on the MARk Python client can be found on the PyPi repository website.

MARk: Visualizations with D3.js
Detecting suspicious or malicious activity in a network is not a trivial task. In recent years the attacks perpetrated have grown in sophistication and frequency. For this reason a new detection tool was developed, in the form of the Multi Agent Ranking framework (MARk). MARk sets the groundwork for the implementation of large scale detection and ranking systems through the implementation of a distributed storage in conjuncture with highly specialized, stand-alone detector agents. The detector agents are responsible for analyzing specific predefined characteristics and producing a report of any suspicious activity encountered.
