Abstract

Systems and methods for determining a user's presence on a network of an enterprise are provided. Traffic is collected to a network from devices and, over a period of time, login and logoff information from a user is determined from the collected network traffic. Network sessions are determined from a user's login and logoff information and timetable is generated specific to the user that contains the network sessions. The time table identifies when the user was active and when the user was not active based on the login and logoff information and, therefore, present at a particular location over a period of time.
