Abstract
A system and method for detecting unauthorized access to a cloud application hosted in a cloud-computing platform are presented. The method comprising: identifying, by a managed proxy device, a first access attempt to a cloud application at a first time and from a first location; identifying, by a managed proxy device, a second access attempt to the cloud application at a second time and from a second location; computing a velocity between the first access attempt and the second access attempt based on the first time, the second time, the first location, and the second location; checking if the computed velocity is greater than a velocity threshold; and generating a velocity event when the computed velocity is greater than the velocity threshold, wherein the velocity event indicates that an access attempt is unauthorized.
