  • Patent number: 11838311
    Abstract: A system described herein may provide a technique for identifying and remediating potential threat vectors in a system, such as containers or applications in a virtual or cloud computing environment. Attributes of potential threat vectors may be identified, and the potential threat vectors may be scored based on the attributes. Values or scores of individual attributes may be determined through machine learning or other suitable techniques. Scores exceeding a threshold may indicate that a remedial measure should be performed. A remedial measure may be identified using machine learning or other suitable techniques. After the remedial measure is performed, the threat vector may be scored again, and a machine learning model may be refined based on whether the remedial measure was successful.
    Type: Grant
