Abstract

A method for event data fencing includes initializing a media monitoring algorithm, wherein the media monitoring algorithm scans for one or more words relating to a data breach in publicly available reports. Responsive to identifying a report from the publicly available reports relating to a vulnerability associated with the data breach, the method determines whether the vulnerability is associated with event data utilized for an authentication process. Responsive to determining the vulnerability is associated with a portion of the event data utilized for the authentication process, the method fences the portion of event data associated with the vulnerability, wherein fencing prevents the portion of event data from being utilized in the authentication process.
