  • Patent number: 9038187
    Abstract: Systems and methods for calculating threat scores for individuals within an organization or domain are provided. Aspects of the invention relate to computer-implemented methods that form a predictive threat rating for user accounts. In one implementation, a first threat score representing a first time period may be calculated. The first threat score may be compared with aspects of the same user accounts for a second time period. Weighting schemes may be applied to certain activities, controls, and/or user accounts. Further aspects relate to apparatuses configured to execute methods for ranking individual user accounts. Certain embodiments may not block transmissions that violate predefine rules, however, indications of such improper transmission may be considered when constructing a threat rating. Blocked transmissions enforced upon a user account may also be received. Certain activity, such as accessing the internet, may be monitored for the presence of a security threat and/or an ethics threat.

  • Publication number: 20120046989
    Abstract: Embodiments of the invention relate to risk review assessments and, more particularly to determining risk review candidates by identifying two or more community categories, determining risk scores for each user/employee across risk categories, normalizing the risk scores based on community averages and community standard deviations and determining risk review candidates by comparing the normalized risk scores to predetermined thresholds. In additional embodiments, an outlier reinforcement score for each user/employee by summing all of the positive-valued normalized risk scores across the two or more communities and comparing the outlier reinforcement score to a predetermined threshold.
