Abstract
Embodiments are directed to monitoring network traffic using a network computer. The network computer provides anomaly information associated with anomalies that may be associated with monitored network traffic. An inference engine may determine the users associated with the anomalies based on the monitored network traffic. A communication channel associated with the users may be determined based on the anomalies and the monitored network traffic such that the communication channel may be separate from the monitored network traffic. The communication channel may be employed to provide investigative agents to the users. Investigative information may be collected from the investigative agents over the communication channel. The inference engine may provide a risk value that is associated with the anomalies based on the investigative information.
