CYBERSECURITY ANALYSIS AND PROTECTION USING DISTRIBUTED SYSTEMS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240244090 titled 'CYBERSECURITY ANALYSIS AND PROTECTION USING DISTRIBUTED SYSTEMS
The patent application focuses on cybersecurity reconnaissance, analysis, and scoring using distributed computing services to analyze IT/OT networks with publicly available data. An in-memory associative array manages tasks through a proxy network, controlling the search approach to obtain desired results, especially when target network behavior adjusts based on counterparty characteristics. A data packet modifier reveals threat actors behind port scans and blocks them.

Original Abstract Submitted
cybersecurity reconnaissance, analysis, and scoring uses distributed, cloud or edge-based pools of computing services to provide sufficient scalability for analysis of it/ot networks using only publicly available characterizations. an in-memory associative array manages a queue of configuration and vulnerability search tasks through at least one public-facing proxy network which uses configurable search nodes to approach the target network with search tools in a desired manner to control certain aspects of the search in order to obtain the desired results, especially when target network behavior adjusts based on counterparty characteristics. a data packet modifier reveals ip addresses of threat actors behind port scans and subsequently block the threat actors.
