Abstract: Techniques for user behavior anomaly detection. At least one low-variance characteristic is compared to an expected result for the corresponding low-variance characteristics to determine if the low-variance characteristic(s) is/are within a pre-selected range of the expected results. A security response action is taken in response to the low-variance characteristic not being within the first pre-selected range of the expected results. At least one high-variance characteristic is compared to an expected result for the corresponding high-variance characteristics to determine if the high-variance characteristic(s) is/are within a pre-selected range of the expected results. A security response action is taken in response to the high-variance characteristic not being within the first pre-selected range of the expected results. Access is provided if the low-variance and the high-variance characteristics are within the respective expected ranges.

Abstract: A contents providing system provides a content and attached information of the content stored in a contents controlling apparatus to a terminal apparatus. The contents providing system includes a determination section that determines whether or not a specific content among a plurality of contents stored in the contents controlling apparatus is stored in the terminal apparatus, and a transfer section that transfers the specific content and attached information of the specific content to the terminal apparatus when the determination section determines that the specific content is not stored in the terminal apparatus, and transfers only the attached information of the specific content instead of both the specific content and the attached information of the specific content when the determination section determines that the specific content is stored in the terminal apparatus.
