Method And System For Detection Of Undisclosed Cyber Events

A non-transitory computer-readable medium, comprising instructions configured to detect unreported cyber events experienced by an entity of interest, wherein the instructions, when executed by one or more processors, are configured to:

• obtain cybersecurity data for a plurality of entities, each entity being a company or an organization;
• transform the cybersecurity data into a plurality of images that are configured to convey the cybersecurity data for the plurality of entities;
• train a machine learning algorithm on the plurality of images to create a trained machine learning algorithm;
• utilize the trained machine learning algorithm to generate a predicted number of cyber events experienced by the entity of interest;
• monitor a reported number of cyber events experienced by the entity of interest;
• perform a comparison of the predicted number of cyber events experienced by the entity of interest to the reported number of cyber events experienced by the entity of interest;
• and
• generate a predicted unreported number of cyber events experienced by the entity of interest based on the comparison.

A computer-implemented method for detection of unreported cyber events experienced by an entity of interest, the computer-implemented method comprising:

• employing a machine learning algorithm having been trained on cybersecurity data for a plurality of entities, each entity being a company or an organization, the cybersecurity data having been transformed into a plurality of images that convey the cybersecurity data for the plurality of entities;
• utilizing the machine learning algorithm for generating a predicted number of cyber events experienced by the entity of interest;
• monitoring a reported number of cyber events experienced by the entity of interest;
• performing a comparison of the predicted number of cyber events experienced by the entity of interest to the reported number of cyber events experienced by the entity of interest;
• and
• generating a predicted unreported number of cyber events experienced by the entity of interest based on performing the comparison.
