Using social network data to detect and quantify unauthorized consumption of content

Abstract:

A method for utilizing data analytics to identify unauthorized consumption of content comprises obtaining social network activity data from one or more social networks. The obtained social network activity data is analyzed to identify one or more users involved with content associated with a content provider. A determination is made as to whether or not the one or more users are authorized to access the content based at least in part on the analysis.
