User behavioral risk assessment
First Claim
1. At least one non-transitory machine accessible storage medium having instructions stored thereon, the instructions when executed on a machine, cause the machine to:
- identify a predetermined particular behavioral profile associated with at least one particular user of a computing system, the particular behavioral profile identifying expected behavior of users within a set of one or more users within the computing system, wherein the particular behavioral profile is based on previously detected activities of at least one user in the set and the set comprises the particular user;
identify, using at least one computer processing device, activities associated with use of the computing system by the particular user; and
determined, for each of the identified activities, whether the activity correlates with the particular behavioral profile, wherein determining that the activity deviates from the particular behavioral profile beyond a particular threshold triggers a risk event relating to the particular user and determining that the activity deviates from the particular behavioral profile within the particular threshold causes the particular behavioral profile to be revised based at least in part on the particular activity.

Abstract
A predetermined particular behavioral profile is identified associated with at least one particular user of a computing system, the particular behavioral profile identifying expected behavior of the at least one user within the computing system. Activities associated with use of the computing system by the particular user are identified and it is determined whether the identified activities correlate with the particular behavioral profile. Identifying an activity that deviates from the particular behavioral profile beyond a particular threshold triggers a risk event relating to the particular user.

19. A method comprising:
-
identifying a predetermined particular behavioral profile associated with at least one particular user of a computing system, the particular behavioral profile identifying expected behavior of users within a set of one or more users within the computing system, wherein the particular behavioral profile is based on previously detected activities of at least one user in the set and the set comprises the particular user; identifying activities associated with use of the computing system by the particular user; and determining, for each of the identified activities, whether the activity correlates with the particular behavioral profile, wherein determining that the activity deviates from the particular behavioral profile beyond a particular threshold triggers a risk event relating to the particular user and determining that the activity deviates from the particular behavioral profile within the particular threshold causes the particular behavioral profile to be revised based at least in part on the particular activity.

20. A system comprising:
-
at least one processor device; at least one memory element; and a user behavioral risk analysis engine, adapted when executed by the at least one processor device to; identify a predetermined particular behavioral profile associated with at least one particular user of a computing system, the particular behavioral profile identifying expected behavior of users within a set of one or more users within the computing system, wherein the particular behavioral profile is based on previously detected activities of at least one user in the set and the set comprises the particular user; identify a particular activity associated with use of the computing system by the particular user; and determine, for each of the identified activities, whether the activity correlates with the particular behavioral profile, wherein determining that the activity deviates from the particular behavioral profile beyond a particular threshold triggers a risk event relating to the particular user and determining that the activity deviates from the particular behavioral profile within the particular threshold causes the particular behavioral profile to be revised based at least in part on the particular activity. - View Dependent Claims (21, 22)
