Abstract
Example methods are provided for adaptive file access authorization using process access patterns. In a learning mode, attributes and other information, which are associated with applications or with processes that are related to the applications and that attempt to access a file system, are collected and used to generate a policy. In a protected mode, file access requests are examined against the policy, and are granted access to the file system or are denied access to the file system based on the contents of the policy. The policy may be updated so as to adapt to changes in the access patterns and to changes in the application or processes.
