Abstract: A system and method is provided to monitor user and system behavior associated with computer and network activity to determine deviations from normal behavior that represent a potential cyber threat or cyber malicious activity. The system and method uses a multi-factor behavioral and activity analysis approach to determine when a trusted insider might be exhibiting threatening behavior or when a user's computer or network credentials have been compromised and are in use by a third-party. As a result, changes in insider behavior that could be indicative of malicious intent can be detected, or an external entity masquerading as a legitimate user can be detected.
Abstract: A system and method is provided for identifying and analyzing cyber-attacks and profiling adversaries responsible for such attacks. The system and method allows for the quantitative measurement of adversary attack behavior. The system and method is able to extract quantitative data from raw attack data and compare the quantitative data to a database of quantifiable metrics associated with known adversaries. This allows for the possible linking of a cyber-attack to a known adversary or known adversary behavior.
