Abstract: A packet-filtering device may receive packet-filtering rules configured to cause the packet-filtering device to identify packets corresponding to network-threat indicators. The packet-filtering device may receive packets and, for each packet, may determine that the packet corresponds to criteria specified by a packet-filtering rule. The criteria may correspond to one or more of the network-threat indicators. The packet-filtering device may apply an operator specified by the packet-filtering rule. The operator may be configured to cause the packet-filtering device to either prevent the packet from continuing toward its destination or allow the packet to continue toward its destination.

Abstract: A cyber threat intelligence (CTI) gateway device may receive rules for filtering TCP/IP packet communications events that are configured to cause the CTI gateway device to identify communications corresponding to indicators, signatures, and behavioral patterns of network threats. The CTI gateway device may receive packets that compose endpoint-to-endpoint communication events and, for each event, may determine that the event corresponds to criteria specified by a filtering rule. The criteria may correspond to one or more of the network threat indicators, signatures, and behavioral patterns. The CTI gateway may create a log of the threat event and forward the threat event log to a task queue managed by a cyberanalysis workflow application. Human cyberanalysts use the cyberanalysis workflow application to service the task queue by removing the task at the front of the queue, investigating the threat event, and deciding whether the event is a reportable finding that should be reported to the proper authorities.

Abstract: Methods and systems are disclosed for integrating cyber threat intelligence (CTI), threat metadata, and threat intelligence gateways with analysis systems to form efficient and effective system for active, proactive, and reactive network protection. A network gateway may be composed of multiple stages. A first stage may include a threat intelligence gateway (TIG). A second stage may include one or more cyber analysis systems that ingest TIG-filtered communications and associated threat metadata signals. A third stage may include network protection logic that determines which protective actions. The gateway may be provisioned and configured with rules that specify the network protection policies to be enforced. The gateway may ingest all communications flowing between the protected network and the unprotected network.
