Abstract
The disclosed computer-implemented method for time-shifted detection of security threats may include (1) collecting history data that describes activity of the computing system during a past time period, (2) archiving the history data in association with the past time period, (3) identifying a potential security threat to the computing system that was unknown to a software security system during the past time period, and (4) in response to identifying the potential security threat, replaying the history data through the software security system to enable the software security system to determine whether the computing system was affected by the potential security threat during the past time period. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.
