Abstract

The disclosed computer-implemented method for detecting anomalous behavior within computing sessions may include (i) identifying, by the computing device, a set of execution events that correspond to a computing session, (ii) providing, by the computing device, the set of execution events as input to an autoencoder, (iii) receiving, by the computing device and from the autoencoder, a reconstruction error associated with autoencoding the set of execution events, (iv) detecting, by the computing device and based on the reconstruction error, an anomaly within the computing session, and (v) performing, by the computing device, a security action to address the anomaly within the computing session. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.
