Abstract
Methods, systems, and computer-readable media for identifying users, records, and/or devices using anonymous source data records associated with consumer activity are described. In general, the consumer activity may relate to consumer interactions with devices and/or content or data through devices. The source data records may be structured, such as associating the source data records with a sequential timeline. Behavioral markers may be generated by the matching system and associated with the source data records. Each behavioral marker may be analyzed across all of the source data records to determine the effectiveness of the behavioral marker to identify unique source data records. One or more of the behavioral markers may be used to generate a behavioral fingerprint. A behavioral fingerprint may be used to identify unique records, devices, and/or users, including identification based on different sets of source data records.
