摘要:
One embodiment of the described invention is directed to a key management module deployed within a cybersecurity system that operates as a multi-tenant Security-as-a-Service (SaaS) by relying on Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) cloud processing resources and cloud storage resources. The key management module is configured to assign a master key to a subscriber upon registration and, as requested, generate one or more virtual keys, based at least in part on the master key, for distribution to the subscriber. Each virtual key is included as part of a submission into the cybersecurity system and is used to authenticate the subscriber of the submission and verify that the subscriber is authorized to perform one or more tasks associated with the submission before the one or more tasks are performed.

A system for detecting artifacts associated with a cyber-attack features a cybersecurity intelligence hub remotely located from and communicatively coupled to one or more network devices via a network. The hub includes a data store and retroactive reclassification logic. The data store includes stored meta-information associated with each prior evaluated artifact of a plurality of prior evaluated artifacts. Each meta-information associated with a prior evaluated artifact of the plurality of prior evaluated artifacts includes a verdict classifying the prior evaluated artifact as a malicious classification or a benign classification. The retroactive reclassification logic is configured to analyze the stored meta-information associated with the prior evaluated artifact and either (a) identify whether the verdict associated with the prior evaluated artifact is in conflict with trusted cybersecurity intelligence or (b) identify inconsistent verdicts for the same prior evaluated artifact.

A network device for collecting and distributing cybersecurity intelligence, which features analytics logic and a plurality of plug-ins. The analytics logic is configured to (i) receive a request message to conduct a cybersecurity analysis and (ii) select one of a first set or second set of plug-ins to conduct the cybersecurity analysis. Responsive to selecting a first plug-in of the first set of plug-ins by the analytics logic, the system conducts and completes the cybersecurity analysis while a communication session between the first plug-in and a network device initiating the request message remains open. Responsive to selecting a second plug-in by the analytics logic, the system conducts and completes the cybersecurity analysis while allowing the cybersecurity intelligence to be provided in response to the request message during a different and subsequent communication session than the communication session during which the request message is received.

A computerized system and method is described for classifying objects as malicious by processing the objects in a virtual environment and monitoring behaviors during processing by one or more monitors, where the monitoring is conducted in an electronic device that is different than the electronic device within which an analysis of attributes of the objects is conducted beforehand. The monitors may monitor and record selected sets of process operations and capture associated process parameters, which describe the context in which the process operations were performed. By recording the context of process operations, the system and method described herein improves the intelligence of classifications and consequently reduces the likelihood of incorrectly identifying objects as malware or vice versa.

One embodiment of the described invention is directed to a computerized method for improving detection of cybersecurity threats initiated by a script. Herein, the method is configured to analyze the script provided as part of a script object by at least (i) determining whether any functional code blocks forming the script include a critical code statement, (ii) determining whether any of the functional code blocks include an evasive code statement, (iii) modifying the script to control processing of a subset of the functional code blocks by avoiding an execution code path including the evasive code statement and processing functional code blocks forming a code path including the critical code statement, and (iv) executing of the modified script and monitoring behaviors of a virtual environment. Thereafter, the method is configured to determine whether the script including cybersecurity threats based on the monitored behaviors.
摘要:
A system and method for retrieval and analysis of stored objects for malware is described. The method involves receiving a scan request message from a customer to conduct analytics on one or more objects stored within a third-party controlled service. In response to receipt of the scan request message, the system generates a redirect message. The redirect message redirects the customer to an authentication portal of the third-party controlled service operating as a logon page and configures receipt by the system of access credentials for the third-party controlled service upon verification of the customer. Using the access credentials, the system is able to retrieve the one or more objects using the access credentials and performing analytics on each object of the one or more objects to classify each object as malicious or benign.
摘要:
According to one embodiment, an apparatus comprises a processor and memory. Communicatively coupled to the processor, the memory includes a detection module that, when executed, conducts an analysis of a received object to determine if the received object is associated with a malicious attack. The detection module is configurable, and thus, certain capabilities can be enabled, disabled or modified. The analysis is to be altered upon receipt of a configuration file that includes information to alter one or more rules controlling the analysis conducted by the detection module.

According to one embodiment, a threat detection platform is integrated with at least one virtual machine that automatically performs a dynamic analysis of a received object and monitors the processing during the dynamic analysis for a change to a file system within the virtual machine wherein the change involves a lure file placed in the file system. The file system is configured based on a received configuration file. Upon detection of a change in the file system associated with a lure file, the changes associated with the lure file during processing are compared to known file activity patterns of changes caused by file altering malware to determine whether the object includes file altering malware.
摘要:
According to one embodiment, a threat detection platform is integrated with at least one virtual machine that automatically performs a dynamic analysis of a received document object and monitors the processing during the dynamic analysis. The dynamic analysis includes a detection of embedded objects and may automatically process the embedded objects, while maintaining a context of the embedding, within the virtual machine processing the document object. The virtual machine may monitor the processing of both the document object and the embedded object. The results of the processing may be analyzed to determine whether the document object includes malware and/or a threat level of the document object.
