Cyber-threat intelligence infrastructure for identifying security vulnerabilities
A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11888884B2) discloses a cyber-threat intelligence (CTI) infrastructure designed to enhance network security by processing network reporting information collected by a plurality of network devices. The infrastructure includes a collection of CTI servers responsible for receiving, storing, and enriching the network reporting information with enrichment data. This process involves tagging records with indications of whether the source and destination are identified as clients or servers, allowing for the identification of potential security vulnerabilities. The infrastructure also features real-time and offline threat analysis components, a storage component, and an alert component to provide alerts based on identified vulnerabilities. Additionally, the infrastructure allows for the configuration of network devices such as firewalls and routers based on the results of scripts or queries run against the enriched network reporting information.
Furthermore, the patent includes a method for processing network information that mirrors the functionality of the CTI infrastructure. The method involves receiving, storing, and enriching network reporting information with enrichment data, tagging records, and processing them through real-time and offline threat analysis components to identify security vulnerabilities. The method also includes updating the threat analysis components, providing alerts based on identified vulnerabilities, and configuring network devices based on the analysis results. Overall, the CTI infrastructure and method aim to enhance cybersecurity measures by efficiently processing network reporting information and identifying potential security threats through a combination of real-time and offline analysis components, alert mechanisms, and network device configuration capabilities.
