  • Patent number: 11159558
    Abstract: A query is received from a particular endpoint device identifying a particular wireless access point encountered by the particular endpoint device. Pre-existing risk assessment data is identified for the identified particular wireless access point and query result data is sent to the particular endpoint device characterizing pre-assessed risk associated with the particular wireless access point. In some instances, the query result data is generated based on the pre-existing risk assessment data. In some instances, pre-existing risk assessment data can be the result of an earlier risk assessment carried-out at least in part by an endpoint device interfacing with and testing the particular wireless access point.

  • Patent number: 10505965
    Abstract: A particular activity performed by a particular user of a computing device is identified, for instance, by an agent installed on the computing device. It is determined that the particular activity qualifies as a particular use violation in a plurality of pre-defined use violations. A behavioral risk score for the particular score for the user is determined based at least in part on the determination that the particular activity of the particular user qualifies as a particular use violation. Determining that the particular activity qualifies as a particular use violation can include determining that the particular activity violates a particular rule or event trigger corresponding to a particular pre-defined use violation.

  • Patent number: 9648035
    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.

  • Patent number: 8949993
    Abstract: At least one available wireless access point is identified at a particular location and a connection is established with the available wireless access point. Communication is attempted with a trusted endpoint over the wireless access point and the attempted communication with the trusted endpoint over the wireless access point is monitored to assess risk associated with the wireless access point. Results of the assessment, in some instances, can be reported to an access point risk manager and risk associated with future attempts to use the wireless access point can be assessed based at least in part on the reported assessment results.
