  • System for generating a communication pathway for third party vulnerability management
    Patent number: 10841330
    Abstract: The invention utilizes a two-component system to detect third party security threats and drive improved security threat mitigation based on the detection. The first component of the system is a security threat assessment engine, which receives and/or identifies external data and internal data regarding third parties in order to determine information security threats posed by third-parties. The second component of the system is an analytics engine, which may comprise a machine learning component which is configured to detect threat patterns and anomalies. In response to the detection of the threat patterns and anomalies the security threat assessment engine may be modified in order to more accurately determine security threats. The system after identifying a security threat, generates a notification associated with the security threat and transfers the notification to a first set of third parties that may be affected by the security threat.
