  • Methods and systems for reinforcement learning of post-attack security hardening passes
    Patent number: 11403427
    Abstract: Various embodiments of methods, systems and computer program products described herein are directed to a Security Engine. The Security Engine provides for post-attack security upgrades of an application by selecting specific security hardening passes to be applied to a pre-attack state of the application. According to various embodiments, the Security Engine receives a pre-attack state of a first instance of an application in response to an action by an attack source. The Security Engine selects one or more security hardening passes to be applied to the pre-attack state. The Security Engine sends an identification of the selected security hardening passes to be applied to a second instance of the application running at the pre-attack state.
