Abstract

The present disclosure relates generally to security solutions. More specifically, techniques (e.g., systems, methods, and devices) are provided to implement an incentivized-based intrusion detection system to detect malicious acts against an asset. The incentive may lure or facilitate the actor to provide information detecting malicious actions against an asset.

Claims (35)

1. A method comprising:

monitoring a distributed ledger system;

detecting initiation of a smart contract deployed on the distributed ledger system, wherein the smart contract is initiated based on access of an asset in a repository by at least one device, the repository being configured in a digital environment, wherein initiation of the smart contract causes an incentive associated with the asset to be transferred; and

detecting an intrusion of the digital environment based on the incentive associated with the asset being transferred.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the distributed ledger system is monitored in real-time.

3. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

generating, based on initiation of the smart contract, an alert associated with the intrusion of the digital environment.

4. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

detecting access of the asset in the repository by the at least one device.

5. The method of claim 4 , further comprising:

based on detecting the access of the asset in the repository by the at least one device, obtaining at least a portion of metadata associated with the asset to initiate the smart contract deployed on the distributed ledger system.

6. The method of claim 5 , wherein at least the portion of the metadata includes a script that initiates the smart contract to provide an incentive.

7. The method of claim 5 , wherein the metadata is hashed and signed with a private key.

8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the asset is changed over time.

9. The method of claim 1 , wherein initiation of the smart contract triggers a funds transfer.

10. The method of claim 1 , wherein the asset is provided as proof to claim an incentive.

11. A computer-program product tangibly embodied in a non- transitory machine-readable storage medium, including instructions that, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform operations including:

monitoring a distributed ledger system;

detecting initiation of a smart contract deployed on the distributed ledger system, wherein the smart contract is initiated based on access of an asset in a repository by at least one device, the repository being configured in a digital environment, wherein initiation of the smart contract causes an incentive associated with the asset to be transferred; and

detecting an intrusion of the digital environment based on the incentive associated with the asset being transferred.

12. The computer-program product of claim 11 , wherein the distributed ledger system is monitored in real-time.

13. The computer-program product of claim 11 , further comprising including instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform operations including:

generating, based on initiation of the smart contract, an alert associated with the intrusion of the digital environment.

14. The computer-program product of claim 11 , further comprising including instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform operations including:

detecting access of the asset in the repository by the at least one device; and

based on detecting the access of the asset in the repository by the at least one device, obtaining at least a portion of metadata associated with the asset to initiate the smart contract deployed on the distributed ledger system.

15. A system comprising:

one or more processors; and

one or more non-transitory machine-readable storage media containing instructions that, when executed on the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform operations including:

monitoring a distributed ledger system;

detecting initiation of a smart contract deployed on the distributed ledger system, wherein the smart contract is initiated based on access of an asset in a repository by at least one device, the repository being configured in a digital environment, wherein initiation of the smart contract causes an incentive associated with the asset to be transferred; and

detecting an intrusion of the digital environment based on the incentive associated with the asset being transferred.

16. The system of claim 15 , wherein the distributed ledger system is monitored in real-time.

17. The system of claim 15 , wherein the one or more non-transitory machine-readable storage media further include instructions that, when executed on the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform operations including:

generating, based on initiation of the smart contract, an alert associated with the intrusion of the digital environment.
