Abstract
A controller for user authentication and access control, configured to: store data representing a graph having: nodes representing data elements associated with accesses made using an access token; and links among the nodes representing connections between the data elements identified in details of the accesses. In response to receiving details of an access made using the access token, the controller updates the graph according to the details and determines a plurality of measurements of the graph. After computing a score of the graph based on a weighted average of the measurements, the controller authenticates the user of the access and/or controls the access based on the score.
