Abstract
A computer establishes normal activity levels of a factor associated with an application, system, network, or computing environment. The computer receives rules prescribing the trust levels assigned to users or devices during normal and abnormal activity levels exhibited by the factor. The computer monitors the activity level exhibited by the factor and determines whether the activity is normal or abnormal. If the computer determines that the factor is exhibiting abnormal activity, the computer modifies the trust level of associated users and devices according to the rules. The computer continues to monitor the activity of the factor until the computer determines that normal activity levels of the factor have returned, at which point the computer modifies the trust level of associated users or devices according to the rules.
