Abstract

A centralized network environment is provided for processing validated executable data based on authorized hash outputs. In particular, the system may generate cryptographic hash outputs of code or software that has been evaluated (e.g., within a virtual environment). The system may then store the hash outputs within a hash database which may be accessible by multiple entity networks, where multiple entities may upload hash output values to and/or retrieve hash output values from the hash database. Based on the data within the hash database, each entity may efficiently identify code that may be safe or unsafe to execute on certain computing systems within its network environment. The system may further comprise an artificial intelligence-powered component which may be configured to detect patterns within code that has been identified by the system as unsafe and provide notifications containing systems likely to be affected and recommended countermeasures.
