Abstract

A method may include monitoring calls and/or traffic on a network and identifying behavior associated with each of a plurality of user devices with respect to activity on the network. The method may also include aggregating information about the behavior associated with the user devices, determining whether the aggregated information corresponds to an anomaly with respect to usage of the network and determining, when the aggregated information corresponds to the anomaly, whether the anomaly meets a threshold based on a type of anomaly and a number of user devices affected by the anomaly. The method may further include identifying, when the aggregated information corresponds to the anomaly, user devices in an area corresponding to the anomaly, generating a notification in response to determining that the aggregated information corresponds to the anomaly and transmitting the notification to the identified user devices in the area corresponding to the anomaly.
