Abstract
In one aspect, an example methodology implementing the disclosed techniques includes, by a computing device, monitoring an application for suspicious activity based on keystrokes to input data to the application and detecting an instance of suspicious activity within the application based on a sequence of keystrokes to input the data to the application, the sequence of keystrokes to provide characters indicative of sensitive data and in a format different than an expected format for the input data. The method also includes, by the computing device, generating an action to prevent loss of sensitive data in response to detection of the instance of suspicious activity.
Claims20
A method comprising:
- monitoring, by a computing device, an application for suspicious activity based on keystrokes to input data to the application;
- detecting, by the computing device, an instance of suspicious activity within the application based on a sequence of keystrokes to input the data to the application, the sequence of keystrokes to provide characters indicative of sensitive data and in a format different than an expected format for the input data;
- and
- generating, by the computing device, an action to prevent loss of sensitive data in response to detection of the instance of suspicious activity.
A system comprising:
- a memory;
- and
- one or more processors in communication with the memory and configured to,
- monitor an application for suspicious activity based on keystrokes to input data to the application;
- detect an instance of suspicious activity within the application based on a sequence of keystrokes to input the data to the application, the sequence of keystrokes to provide characters indicative of sensitive data and in a format different than an expected format for the input data;
- and
- generate an action to prevent loss of sensitive data in response to detection of the instance of suspicious activity.
A method comprising:
- identifying, by a computing device, an element of a first application, the identified element associated with sensitive data;
- generating, by the computing device, an event listener for the identified element of the first application;
- detecting, by the computing device, an instance of suspicious activity within the first application based on user operations with the first application and associated with the identified element of the first application;
- and
- generating, by the computing device, an action to prevent loss of sensitive data in response to detection of the instance of suspicious activity.
