Abstract
A behavioral tracking system, method, and computer program product are provided for undoing events based on user input. In use, a plurality of unclassified events is identified on a system utilizing behavioral tracking. Additionally, input associated with at least one of the unclassified events is received from a user of the system for classifying the at least one of the unclassified events as an unwanted event. Further, the at least one unwanted event is undone in response to the receipt of the input.
Claims13
A non-transitory computer readable medium on which are stored instructions, comprising instructions that when executed cause a computer to:
- perform, by the computer, behavioral tracking of applications running on the computer;
- identify a plurality of unclassified events associated with user-initiated actions on the computer;
- receive, by the computer, an input associated with an unwanted behavior of the computer associated with at least one unclassified event, the input comprising a user selection associated with the unwanted behavior;
- determine, by the computer, an unclassified event of the plurality of unclassified events is associated with the unwanted behavior, responsive to the input;
- classify, by the computer, the unclassified event as an unwanted event, responsive to the determination;
- and
- undo, by the computer, the unwanted event responsive to the classification.
A method, comprising:
- performing, by a computer system, behavioral tracking of the computer system;
- identifying, by the computer system, a plurality of unclassified events associated with user-initiated actions on the computer system;
- receiving, by the computer system, an input associated with an unwanted behavior associated with at least one unclassified event, the input comprising a user selection associated with the unwanted behavior;
- determining, by the computer system, whether the unwanted behavior is associated with an unclassified event of the plurality of unclassified events, responsive to the input;
- classifying, by the computer system, the unclassified event as an unwanted event, responsive to the determination;
- and
- undoing, by the computer system, the unwanted event in response to the classification.
A system for undoing events on a computer system based on user input, comprising:
- a hardware processor;
- a memory, on which are stored instructions, comprising instructions that when executed cause the hardware processor to:
- perform, by the hardware processor, behavioral tracking of the computer system;
- identify, by the hardware processor, a plurality of unclassified events associated with user-initiated actions utilizing behavioral tracking;
- receive, by the hardware processor, an input associated with an unwanted behavior associated with at least one unclassified event, the input comprising a user selection associated with the unwanted behavior;
- determine, by the hardware processor, which unclassified event of the plurality of unclassified events is associated with the unwanted behavior, responsive to the input;
- classify, by the hardware processor, the unclassified event as an unwanted event responsive to the determination;
- and
- undo the unwanted event responsive to the classification.
