One embodiment of the described invention is directed to a key management module and a consumption quota monitoring module deployed within a cybersecurity system. The key management module is configured to assign a first key to a subscriber and generate one or more virtual keys, based at least in part on the first key, for distribution to the subscriber. A virtual key is included as part of a submission received from the subscriber to authenticate the subscriber and verify that the subscriber is authorized to perform a task associated with the submission. The consumption quota monitoring module is configured to monitor a number of submissions received from the subscriber.

Subscription and key management system

A computerized method for analyzing an object is disclosed. The computerized method includes obtaining, by a cybersecurity system, an object and context information generated during a first malware analysis of the object conducted prior to obtaining the object. Thereafter, the cybersecurity system performs a second malware analysis of the object to determine a verdict indicating maliciousness of the object. The scrutiny of the second malware analysis is adjusted based, at least in part, the context information, which may include (i) activating additional or different monitors, (ii) adjusting thresholds for determining maliciousness, or (iii) applying a modified rule set during the second malware analysis based on the context information.

Multi-vector malware detection data sharing system for improved detection

A system for protecting public cloud-hosted virtual resources features cloud visibility logic. According to one embodiment, the cloud visibility logic includes credential evaluation logic, data collection logic, correlation logic, and reporting logic. The credential evaluation logic is configured to gain authorized access to a cloud account within a first public cloud network. The data collection logic is configured to retrieve account data from the cloud account, while the correlation logic is configured to conduct analytics on the account data to determine whether the cloud account is subject to a cybersecurity threat or misconfiguration. The reporting logic is configured to generate an alert when the cloud account is determined by the correlation logic to be subject to the cybersecurity threat or misconfiguration.

System and method for retrieval and analysis of operational data from customer, cloud-hosted virtual resources

A computerized method for analyzing an object is disclosed. The computerized method includes performing, by a first cybersecurity system, a first malware analysis of the object, wherein a first context information is generated by the first cybersecurity system based on the first malware analysis. The first context information includes at least origination information of the object. Additionally, a second cybersecurity system, obtains the object and the first context information and performs a second malware analysis of the object to determine a verdict indicating maliciousness of the object. The second malware analysis is based at least in part on the first context information. The second cybersecurity system generates and issues a report based on the second malware analysis, the report including the verdict.

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 method for updating a virtual machine disk snapshot for use in instantiating one or more virtual guest instances for malware detection is described. The method features (i) detecting a guest image update package that includes information for updating one or more software components included as part of the virtual machine disk snapshot, and (ii) determining whether the guest image update package is currently contained in a contiguous storage area that is part of the virtual machine disk snapshot. Responsive to determining that the guest image update package is more recent than content currently contained in the contiguous storage area, the guest image update package is inserted into the contiguous storage area that is part of the virtual machine disk snapshot to generate a revised virtual machine disk snapshot that includes the one or more updated software components.
