CYBER SECURITY APPLIANCE FOR A CLOUD INFRASTRUCTURE

A cyber security appliance has modules that utilize probes to interact with entities in a cloud infrastructure environment (CIE). A cloud module can 1) use the information about relevant changes in the CIE fed from the probes, and 2) use machine learning models that are trained on a normal behavior of at least a first entity associated with the CIE; and thus, indicate when a behavior of the first entity falls outside of being a normal pattern of life. A cyber threat module can use machine learning models trained on cyber threats in the CIE and examine at least the behaviors of the first entity falling outside of the normal pattern of life to determine what is a likelihood of ‘a chain of unusual behaviors under analysis that fall outside of being the normal behavior’ is a cyber threat. An autonomous response module can cause actions to contain the cyber threat.
