US Patent 11442766 Systems and methods for open threat hunt

Disclosed herein are embodiments of systems, methods, and products that provide adversary detection and threat hunting. A server may comprise a user side virtual machine facing the cyber protection users, a collection virtual machine facing the at-risk network, and a data repository. The server may receive user requests requesting status data from the at-risk network via the user side virtual machine. The server may collect status data from the at-risk network via the collection virtual machine and store the collected data into the data repository. Different users may request duplicate information from the at-risk network. The server may retrieve the requested information from the data repository for duplicate requests and return the responses immediately for such requests. Because the server does not query the at-risk network for duplicate requests, the server may reduce the amount of bandwidth needed to acquire and distribute the requested information.
