The document discusses using semantic web technologies like Resource Description Framework (RDF) and SPARQL to build "thin slices" or concise queries of network traffic data that can help identify security threats. It notes that current security tools analyze too much data without fully understanding it, and proposes an alternative model using RDF to replicate how the human mind finds patterns. An example shows constructing SPARQL queries to analyze source and destination IP addresses in network packets. The document concludes that techniques are needed to minimize technical debt and detect intrusions amidst unknown threats.
