Abstract

A predetermined particular behavioral profile is identified associated with at least one particular user of a computing system, the particular behavioral profile identifying expected behavior of the at least one user within the computing system. Activities associated with use of the computing system by the particular user are identified and it is determined whether the identified activities correlate with the particular behavioral profile. Identifying an activity that deviates from the particular behavioral profile beyond a particular threshold triggers a risk event relating to the particular user.
