Abstract: Techniques and embodiments are described herein for detecting and mitigating fraudulent activity within user experience (UX) test applications. In some embodiments, a system applies a set of rules and/or machine learning (ML) models to each respondent of an online survey or UX test. Different ML models may be trained to learn domain-specific patterns indicative of fraudulent activity. The system may then select the ML models based on attributes of the UX test and/or respondent. The selected rules and/or ML models may generate a probabilistic score representing a likelihood that the respondent is currently engaging in or will engage in fraudulent activity with respect to a UX test. If the score exceeds a threshold, then the system may take action to mitigate the fraudulent activity, such as triggering the removal of the user from an accepted respondent pool, halting further engagement between the respondent and the UX test, and generating alerts.

Abstract: A system and a method for modeling queue-based message-oriented middleware (MoM) are provided. The method commences with connecting with a MoM system and converting information associated with the MoM system into a standardized object model. The standardized object model may include a queue-based node, at least one producer application, and at least one consumer application. The at least one producer application provides a message to the queue-based node. The at least one consumer application receives the message from the queue-based node. The message persists in the queue until consumed by the at least one consumer application. The method continues with generating a standardized graph of relationships between a producer and a consumer over a period of time. The method further includes creating a policy, periodically analyzing the standardized graph for at least one deviation from the policy, and issuing an alert in response to detecting the at least one deviation.

The at least one consumer application receives the one or more messages from the topic-based node. The method continues with generating a standardized graph of relationships between producers and consumers over a period of time. The method further includes creating a policy, periodically analyzing the standardized graph for at least one deviation from the policy, and issuing an alert in response to detecting the at least one deviation.

Abstract: Systems and methods for assessing an application access risk are provided. An example method commences with collecting data concerning relationships between an application, one or more client devices, and one or more users in a computing environment. The method includes updating a graph database including nodes and edges. The nodes represent the application, the one or more client devices, and the one or more users and the edges represent relationships between the application, the one or more client devices, and the one or more users. The method continues with enriching the graph database by associating the nodes with metadata including information concerning the one or more users accessing the application from the one or more client devices. The method further includes analyzing the graph database to identify a subset of nodes used to access the application and displaying a graphical representation of the subset of nodes.
