Disclosed herein are systems and methods for protecting user data. In one aspect, an exemplary method comprises, by a hardware processor, detecting one or more user files, created by a user, that are on a user device; generating user transactional data associated with one or more detected network-based interactions with a service provider by the user, and user behavior data based on one or more user interactions with a graphical user interface of the user device by the user; generating a user classification using a machine learning model that classifies the user based on the one or more user files, the user transactional data, and the user behavior data; and when the user is identifiable based on the user classification, modifying at least one of the one or more user files stored on the user device and user behavior of the user during an operation of the user device.

Disclosed herein are systems and methods for continuous user authentication during access of a digital service. In an exemplary aspect, a continuous authentication module may receive, at a computing device, initial authentication credentials of the user. The initial authentication credentials enable access to a service via the computing device. While the service is being accessed, the continuous authentication module may continuously monitor whether an unauthorized user has replaced the user in accessing the service by comparing usage attributes of the service with historic usage attributes associated with the user. In response to determining that the unauthorized user has replaced the user, the continuous authentication module may cease the access to the service via the computing device.

Disclosed herein are systems and method for subduing target individuals using unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) comprises deploying one or more UAVs to a location of an individual. The method obtains information about the individual from the one or more UAVs and external sources. The method assigns an aggression factor to the individual based on the obtained information. In response to determining that the aggression factor is greater than an aggression threshold, the method prepares a neutralization action designed to reduce the aggression factor of the individual by: identifying one or more exception conditions of the individual, and selecting, from a plurality of neutralization actions that the one or more UAVs are capable of performing, a neutralization action based on the one or more exception conditions. The method then instructs the one or more UAVs to perform the selected neutralization action on the hostile individuals.
