US Patent 9323930 Systems and methods for reporting security vulnerabilities

A computer-implemented method for reporting security vulnerabilities may include (1) detecting that a malware application is present on an endpoint computing system, (2) determining a window of time during which the malware application was present in a specified condition on the endpoint computing system, (3) logging a list of sensitive data items accessed during the window of time, and (4) conditioning performance of a security action to report the list of sensitive data items on a determination that both (A) a length of the window of time is longer than a security threshold length and is indicative of the malware application being located on the endpoint computing system long enough to potentially compromise a sensitive data item and (B) the malware application was accessed during the window of time. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.
