Abstract
The disclosed technology teaches a method of calibrating a user confidence or risk score that expresses evaluation of user behavior that was not compliant with an organization's security policies, including configuring components of the user confidence or risk score, comprising configuring categorical alert weights, categorized by severity, responsive to administrator controls, for alerts to be generated due to an activity by the user that the organization's security policies treat as risky, and configuring a decay factor that attenuates the alert weights as time passes, responsive to an administrator sensitivity control. The disclosed method includes causing display of resulting user behavior evaluation examples, based on activity examples for user examples, comprising causing display of a time series of the user confidence or risk scores for the activity examples for the user examples, and a resulting user confidence or risk score for the user examples.
