Emotion-based database security

Abstract:

A computer-implemented method is provided. The method may include determining a behavioral pattern of a user based on historical data access events and historical data access conditions corresponding to the historical data access events, wherein the data access events are associated with a computer enterprise system. A data access request from the user with respect to a secure resource may be received from a computing node connected to the computer enterprise system. A behavioral state of the user may be determined with respect to the data access request and data access conditions corresponding to the data access request. A discrepancy between the behavioral pattern and the behavioral state of the user may be detected. A security risk level may be determined based on the discrepancy. In response to determining that the security risk level exceeds a predetermined threshold, a security action may be performed with respect to the secure resource.
