Publication number: 20240045990Abstract: An interactive cyber security user interface is provided. The interactive cyber security user interface comprises a large language model, LLM, module configured to receive a natural language input from a user; analyze the natural language input to determine contextual information from the natural language input; determine one or more components of a cyber security system to query based on the contextual information and the natural language input; and generate a query in a software code format accepted by the one or more components of the cyber security system based on an analysis of the natural language input, the contextual information, and the determined one or more components to be queried. The interactive cyber security user interface is configured to query the determined one or more components of the cyber security system using the generated query and receive a response to the query from the one or more components of the cyber security system.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 8, 2023Publication date: February 8, 2024Inventors: John Anthony Boyer, Timothy Owen Bazalgette, Jack Benjamin Stockdale, Daniel Rutter

Publication number: 20230421602Abstract: The cyber security appliance can have at least the following components. A phishing site detector that has a segmentation module to break up an image of a page of a site under analysis into multiple segments and then analyze each segment of the image to determine visually whether a key text-like feature exists in that segment. A signature creator creates a digital signature for each segment containing a particular key text-like feature. The digital signature for that segment is indicative of a visual appearance of the particular key text-like feature. Trained AI models compare digital signatures from a set of key text-like features detected in the image of that page under analysis to digital signatures of a set of key text-like features from known bad phishing sites in order to output a likelihood of maliciousness of the unknown site under analysis.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 7, 2023Publication date: December 28, 2023Inventors: John Anthony Boyer, Matthew Dunn

Publication number: 20230283629Abstract: An open-source intelligence (OSINT) monitoring engine operating as an AI-driven system for monitoring incoming content received from an OSINT source to detect emerging cyber threats is described. The OSINT monitoring engine features a source evaluation module, a content processing engine, and a content classification engine. The source evaluation module determines a confidence level associated with a source of the incoming content and refrains from providing textual information associated with the incoming content unless the confidence level associated with the source is equal to or exceeds a prescribed threshold. The content processing engine identifies salient information from the textual information for use in identifying an emerging cyber threat.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 3, 2023Publication date: September 7, 2023Inventors: John Anthony Boyer, Jake Lal

Publication number: 20210360027Abstract: A cyber threat defense system can incorporate data from an instant messaging platform with multiple other platforms in a client system to identify cyber threats across the client system. The system can have one or more instant messaging modules to collect instant messaging data from one or more network entities that utilizes one or more instant messaging platforms. A user specific profile module can identify a user of the client system associated with the user account based on a composite user profile constructed from user context data collected across multiple platforms of the client system. A risk profile module can associate the user with a user risk profile based on the composite user profile. The risk profile module can apply one or more artificial intelligence classifiers to the instant message based on the user risk profile. A cyber threat module is configured to identify whether the instant messaging data corresponds to a cyber threat partially based on the user risk profile.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 18, 2021Publication date: November 18, 2021Inventors: John Anthony Boyer, Matthew Dunn
