The technology relates to machine responses to anomalies detected using machine learning based anomaly detection. In particular, to receiving evaluations of production events, prepared using activity models constructed on per-tenant and per-user basis using an online streaming machine learner that transforms an unsupervised learning problem into a supervised learning problem by fixing a target label and learning a regressor without a constant or intercept. Further, to responding to detected anomalies in near real-time streams of security-related events of tenants, the anomalies detected by transforming the events in categorized features and requiring a loss function analyzer to correlate, essentially through an origin, the categorized features with a target feature artificially labeled as a constant. An anomaly score received for a production event is determined based on calculated likelihood coefficients of categorized feature-value pairs and a prevalencist probability value of the production event comprising the coded features-value pairs.

In particular, it relates to constructing activity models on per-tenant and per-user basis using an online streaming machine learner that transforms an unsupervised learning problem into a supervised learning problem by fixing a target label and learning a regressor without a constant or intercept. Further, it relates to detecting anomalies in near real-time streams of security-related events of one or more tenants by transforming the events in categorized features and requiring a loss function analyzer to correlate, essentially through an origin, the categorized features with a target feature artificially labeled as a constant. It further includes determining an anomaly score for a production event based on calculated likelihood coefficients of categorized feature-value pairs and a prevalencist probability value of the production event comprising the coded features-value pairs.
