Abstract
Systems and methods for monitoring malware events in a computer networking environment are described. The systems and methods including the steps of identifying suspect objects; transmitting the suspect objects to an inspection service, wherein the inspection service inspects the suspect objects using a plurality of inspection methods to create digital information about the nature of the potential threat posed by the suspect objects; transmitting said digital information to an analytical service operating, wherein the analytical service performs a plurality of analytical algorithms to categorize the suspect objects with one or more scores for each suspect object based on their security threat; transmitting said one or more scores to a correlation facility which aggregates a plurality of scores; and generating an infection verification pack comprising routines which, when run on an end-point machine within the computer networking environment, will mitigate a suspected security threat.
