SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DETERMINING CYBERSECURITY RISK LEVEL OF ELECTRONIC MESSAGES - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240330483 titled 'SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DETERMINING CYBERSECURITY RISK LEVEL OF ELECTRONIC MESSAGES

The abstract describes a system that extracts IP/domain data from electronic messages, transmits it to a database storing statistical data, analyzes contextual data of the message, and generates a cybersecurity threat output based on statistical and contextual analysis.

  • Internet protocol (IP)/domain extraction unit extracts IP/domain data from electronic messages.
  • Transmitter/receiver transmits the extracted data to a database storing statistical data and receives statistical data associated with the extracted IP/domain.
  • Contextual data analysis unit generates context analysis data based on the content of the received electronic message.
  • Multimodal unit implements sub-models to receive statistical data and context analysis data, generating a cybersecurity threat output.
  • The output is based on the statistical data and context analysis data, identifying cybersecurity threats associated with the received electronic message.

Potential Applications: - Enhancing cybersecurity measures for electronic communications. - Improving threat detection and response in digital communication platforms.

Problems Solved: - Efficient extraction and analysis of IP/domain data from electronic messages. - Enhancing cybersecurity threat detection capabilities.

Benefits: - Enhanced cybersecurity protection for electronic communications. - Improved identification and mitigation of cybersecurity threats.

Commercial Applications: - Cybersecurity companies can integrate this technology into their systems to enhance threat detection capabilities. - Digital communication platforms can use this system to improve security measures for their users.

Questions about the Technology: 1. How does the system differentiate between different types of cybersecurity threats in electronic messages? 2. What measures are in place to ensure the accuracy and reliability of the generated cybersecurity threat outputs?

Frequently Updated Research: - Stay updated on the latest advancements in cybersecurity threat detection and analysis technologies to enhance the system's capabilities.


Original Abstract Submitted

a system includes an internet protocol (ip)/domain extraction unit configured to extract ip/domain data associated with a received electronic message. the system further includes a transmitter/receiver configured to transmit the extracted ip/domain to a database storing statistical data associated with a plurality of ips/domains, and wherein the transmitter/receiver is configured to receive statistical data associated with the extracted ip/domain. the system also includes a contextual data analysis unit configured to generate context analysis data associated with a content of the received electronic message. a multimodal unit is configured to implement at least two sub-models configured to receive the statistical data and further configured to receive the context analysis data, wherein the multimodal unit is further configured to generate an output based on the statistical data and the context analysis data, and wherein the output is a cybersecurity threat associated with the received electronic message.
