Abstract

Various embodiments assess security risks of users in computing networks. In some embodiments, an interaction item is sent to an end user electronic device. When the end user interacts with the interaction item, the system collects feedback data that includes information about the user's interaction with the interaction item, as well as technical information about the electronic device. The feedback is compared to a plurality of security risk scoring metrics. Based on this comparison, a security risk score for the user with respect to a computing network.
