Abstract

Cybersecurity is an issue that affects virtually everybody in the digital age. Attacks such as the Equifax breach or the Wannacry ransomware attack are becoming more and more commonplace and are becoming harder to defend against as attackers become more sophisticated. Many organizations that are breached are often entirely unaware of the breach until after it has occurred, or slow to react during the event. CYBEX is a project to help mitigate this. CYBEX is an automated cybersecurity response system designed to import and analyze log files from many organizations, develop defensive rules against an attack on any one of them, and send the solution out to all other members in order to stop attacks before they can spread. CYBEX primarily targeted at businesses in order to facilitate faster and more effective incident response. CYBEX was successful in testing at being able to securely disseminate security rules out to a group of computers and preemptively stop attacks against them.
