Claims20
A cyber-security account analysis system,
- comprising:
- a processor;
- and
- a memory unit storing computer-executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the cyber-security account analysis system to:
- monitor at least one email account of a consumer;
- determine source information for each item of email correspondence, of a plurality of items of email correspondence, in the monitored at least one email account of the consumer;
- determine, for each of the plurality of items of email correspondence, a likelihood that the item of email correspondence and the determined source information for the item of email correspondence represents a subscription of the consumer;
- based on the determined likelihood that an item of email correspondence, of the plurality of items of email correspondence, represents a subscription of the consumer, generate a list of subscriptions associated with the consumer;
- determine a digital safety score, based on the generated list of subscriptions, associated with the consumer;
- initiate automatic closing of an account associated with a subscription on the generated list of subscriptions, based on a determination that the account has not been accessed for a predetermined period of time;
- and
- adjust, based on the closing of the account associated with the subscription, the digital safety score associated with the consumer.
A method comprising:
- monitoring at least one email account of a consumer;
- determining source information for each item of email correspondence, of a plurality of items of email correspondence, in the monitored at least one email account of the consumer;
- determining, for each of the plurality of items of email correspondence, a likelihood that an item of email correspondence and the determined source information for the item of email correspondence, represents a subscription of the consumer;
- based on the determined likelihood that an item of email correspondence, of the plurality of items of email correspondence, represents a subscription of the consumer, generating a list of subscriptions associated with the consumer;
- determining a digital safety score, based on the generated list of subscriptions, associated with the consumer;
- initiating automatic closing of an account associated with a subscription on the generated list of subscriptions, based on a determination that the account has not been accessed for a predetermined period of time;
- and
- adjusting, based on the closing of the account associated with the subscription, the digital safety score associated with the consumer.
One or more non-transitory, computer-readable media storing instructions that, when executed by a computing device, cause the computing device to:
- monitor at least one email account of a consumer;
- determine source information for each item of email correspondence, of a plurality of items of email correspondence, in the monitored at least one email account of the consumer;
- determine, for each of the plurality of items of email correspondence, a likelihood that an item of email correspondence and the determined source information for the item of email correspondence represents a subscription of the consumer;
- based on the determined likelihood that an item of email correspondence, of the plurality of items of email correspondence, represents a subscription of the consumer, generate a list of subscriptions associated with the consumer;
- determine a digital safety score, based on the generated list of subscriptions, associated with the consumer;
- initiate automatic closing of an account associated with a subscription on the generated list of subscriptions, based on a determination that the account has not been accessed for a predetermined period of time;
- and
- adjust, based on the closing of the account associated with the subscription, the digital safety score associated with the consumer.
