System, method, and computer program product for controlling access to online actions

A system comprising:

• at least one processor programmed or configured to:
• receive via a communication network, a request to perform an online action from a user device, wherein the request comprises at least one identity attribute associated with the user device and an identification attribute associated with the online action;
• retrieve data associated with a number of times the online action has been performed by the user device within at least one time interval based on the at least one identity attribute associated with the user device and the identification attribute associated with the online action;
• determine whether a dataset associated with a number of times a plurality of user devices have performed the online action within the at least one time interval is normally distributed;
• determine a standard deviation associated with the number of times the user device performed the online action within the at least one time interval in response to determining that the dataset is normally distributed;
• and
• perform a control operation associated with the request to conduct the online action based on a threshold of standard deviation.

A computer program product comprising at least one non-transitory computer-readable medium including one or more instructions that, when executed by at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to:

• receive via a communication network, a request to perform an online action from a user device, wherein the request comprises at least one identity attribute associated with the user device and an identification attribute associated with the online action;
• retrieve data associated with a number of times the online action has been performed by the user device within at least one time interval based on the at least one identity attribute associated with the user device and the identification attribute associated with the online action;
• determine whether a dataset associated with a number of times a plurality of user devices have performed the online action within the at least one time interval is normally distributed based on a selected normality check method;
• determine a standard deviation associated with the number of times the user device performed the online action within the at least one time interval in response to determining that the dataset is normally distributed;
• and
• perform a control operation associated with the request to conduct the online action based on a threshold of standard deviation.
