Patent number: 12591691Abstract: Techniques for cybersecurity analysis. A method includes identifying a first set of paths to a first asset. The first set of paths includes a first path which allows for uploading inspection code, a second path which allows for running the inspection code, and a third path which allows for obtaining results of running the inspection code. The first set of paths is selected such that application programming interfaces (APIs) of the first set of paths are at least partially shared with APIs of a second set of paths to each of at least one second asset and, further, selected based on at least one request processing attribute of the at least one API used in order to access the first asset.

Patent number: 12556564Abstract: A system and method for exposure remediation. A method includes analyzing access logs for assets deployed in a computing environment with respect to network traffic in order to identify an indicator of a network access event involving an inbound connection from an external network. The at least one external network is external to the computing environment. The inbound connection includes at least some network traffic being transmitted to the computing environment from the external network. Network configurations of the assets are analyzed in order to identify indicators of a network configuration which enables the assets to be accessed with the external network. A network-facing asset is detected based on the network traffic and the network configurations. The network-facing asset is accessible via the inbound connection and the external network. An exposure is remediated with respect to the network-facing asset.Type: GrantFiled: April 8, 2025Date of Patent: February 17, 2026Assignee: Zafran Security LTDInventors: Ben Seri, Amir Laks
