System and method for predicting and mitigating cybersecurity system misconfigurations

Abstract:

A computerized method for reconfiguring one or more malware detection systems each performing cybersecurity analyses on incoming data is described. The method involves receiving meta-information including metrics associated with a malware detection system. Based on the meta-information, a determination is made whether the malware detection system is operating at an optimal performance level. If not, results produced by conducting behavior analyses predicting operability of the malware detection system are determined and the results are provided as feedback to the malware detection system to update one or more configuration parameter values thereof.
