Abstract

A method for behavioral analysis of scripting utility usage in an enterprise is described. In one embodiment, the method describes receiving, by a processor, data associated with execution of a scripting utility operating on a plurality of computing devices; executing a clustering algorithm on the received data; identifying at least one cluster based at least in part on executing the clustering algorithm; identifying an existence of an anomalous event associated with the scripting utility based at least in part on executing the clustering algorithm; and transmitting an indication of the anomalous event to an administrator.
