1. A system for evaluating identification of a user based on behavioral patterns and time patterns, the system comprising:

  • an analysis component for analyzing;

    an authentication component for authenticating the analyzed data; and

    a behavioral biometric device for collecting behavioral biometric data comprising textual style characteristics of raw streams of text generated by the user, the behavioral biometric data related to the user, wherein an identification of the user is not known, the authentication component and the analysis component operably connected at least with the behavioral biometric device;

    wherein the behavioral biometric data is matched against previously obtained or expected behavioral biometric data stored in a first database component of the analysis component in order to determine an identification of the user, and to progressively, continuously, and incrementally evaluate the trustworthiness of the user to determine a confidence factor, the trustworthiness corresponding to confidence in the identification of the user,wherein one or more application features or resources has different security classification levels, each security classification level associated with a level of access to the one or more application features or application resources,wherein the level of access to one or more application features or application resources for the user is matched to the determined confidence factor,wherein the confidence factor is progressively, continuously, and incrementally increased or decreased based on a timing pattern received from the behavioral biometric device corresponding to a habitual activity of the user; and

    wherein the level of access to the one or more application features or application resources for the user is dynamically increased or decreased responsive to the determined confidence factor.
