SYSTEM FOR INFORMATION SECURITY THREAT ASSESSMENT

Abstract:

The invention utilizes a two-component system to detect third party security threats and drive internal system processes based on the detection. The first component of the system is a threat level engine, which collects external and internal system data on a real-time basis to determine changes in conditions that may give rise to a security threat. Based on the external and internal data, the level engine may calculate a threat assessment level to determine the level of the threat. The second component of the system is a third party analytics engine, which may comprise a machine learning component which is configured to detect threat patterns and anomalies, which may in turn be used to trigger events or to drive internal system processes.
