  • Patent number: 11991215
    Abstract: A system and method for self-adjusting cybersecurity analysis and score generation, wherein a reconnaissance engine gathers data about a client's computer network from the client, from devices and systems on the client's network, and from the Internet regarding various aspects of cybersecurity. Each of these aspects is evaluated independently, weighted, and cross-referenced to generate a cybersecurity score by aggregating individual vulnerability and risk factors together to provide a comprehensive characterization of cybersecurity risk using a transparent and traceable methodology. The scoring system itself can be used as a state machine with the cybersecurity score acting as a feedback mechanism, in which a cybersecurity score can be set at a level appropriate for a given organization, and data from clients or groups of clients with more extensive reporting can be used to supplement data for clients or groups of clients with less extensive reporting to enhance cybersecurity analysis and scoring.

  • Patent number: 11968239
    Abstract: A system and method for the detection and mitigation of data source compromises in an adversarial information environment. The system and method feature the ability to scan for, ingest and process, and then use relational, wide column, and graph stores for capturing entity data, their relationships, and actions associated with them. Furthermore, meta-data is gathered and linked to the ingested data, which provides a broader contextual view of the environment leading up to and during an event of interest. Data quality analysis is conducted on the data as it is ingested in order to identify various data source metrics and determine if a data source may be compromised. The results of the data quality analysis, the identified metrics, the gathered data, and meta-data are used to manage the reputation of the contributing data sources. The system can make recommendations on data sources based on the data source reputation scoring.
