US Patent 11494486 Continuously habituating elicitation strategies for social-engineering-attacks (CHESS)

Described is a system for continuously predicting and adapting optimal strategies for attacker elicitation. The system includes a global bot controlling processor unit and one or more local bot controlling processor units. The global bot controlling processor unit includes a multi-layer network software unit for extracting attacker features from diverse, out-of-band (OOB) media sources. The global controlling processing unit further includes an adaptive behavioral game theory (GT) software unit for determining a best strategy for eliciting identifying information from an attacker. Each local bot controlling processor unit includes a cognitive model (CM) software unit for estimating a cognitive state of the attacker and predicting attacker behavior. A generative adversarial network (GAN) software unit predicts the attacker's strategies. The global bot controlling processor unit and the one or more local bot controlling processor units coordinate to predict the attacker's next action and use the prediction to disrupt an attack.
