Systems and methods for intelligent cyber security threat detection and intelligent verification-informed handling of cyber security events through automated verification workflows

Abstract

A system and method for automated verification of a cybersecurity event includes identifying a cybersecurity event of a subscriber; automatically constructing a response-enabled verification communication based on one or more features of the cybersecurity event satisfying verification-initiating criteria of an automated verification-initiation workflow, and transmitting the response-enabled verification communication to the subscriber associated with the cybersecurity event, wherein the response-enabled verification communication includes: one or more pieces of event-descriptive content; a first selectable interface object that, when selected by the subscriber, automatically increases a threat severity level of the cybersecurity event; and a second selectable interface object that, when selected by the subscriber, automatically de-escalates the threat severity level of the cybersecurity event causing a disposal of the cybersecurity event; and automatically routing the cybersecurity event to one of a cybersecurity threat escalation route and a cybersecurity threat de-escalation route based on subscriber input.
