behavioral detection

Behavioral detection is a method used to identify unusual or suspicious activities by observing patterns of behavior rather than relying on specific rules or signatures. This technique analyzes actions, such as how someone navigates a website or interacts with a system, to spot deviations from the norm. It helps organizations detect potential threats, like fraud or cyberattacks, by assessing the context and frequency of behaviors. Essentially, it focuses on recognizing the “how” and “when” of actions to proactively respond to risks, rather than just looking for known bad actors.
