Abstract

The disclosed technology teaches a method for evaluating user compliance with an organization's security policies, formulating a user confidence or risk score, comprising scoring for each user a sum of alert weights, categorized by severity, and generated over time. Each contribution to an alert weight is generated due to an activity by the user that the organization's security policies treat as risky. Alert weights, over time, are subject to a decay factor that attenuates the alert weights as time passes. Also disclosed is reporting the user confidence score, comprising causing display of a time series of the user confidence or risk scores over a predetermined time and/or a current user confidence or risk score and/or at least some details of the activity by the user that contributed to the alert weights over time.
