Patent number: 10505965Abstract: 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.Type: GrantFiled: August 31, 2016Date of Patent: December 10, 2019Assignee: McAfee, LLCInventors: Michael Mason Moyle, Prasanna Ganapathi Basavapatna, Sven Schrecker

Patent number: 9648035Abstract: 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.Type: GrantFiled: November 3, 2014Date of Patent: May 9, 2017Assignee: McAfee, Inc.Inventors: Prasanna Ganapathi Basavapatna, Michael Mason Moyle, Sven Schrecker
