Abstract
A method is performed in a network security system implemented in a computer or electronic device that is coupled to secured online resources for detecting unauthorized accesses of those secured online resources. The method includes monitoring a user activity session. It is determined whether the user activity session is indicative of a hidden session by an attacker, where the determination includes comparing the user activity session to an average user activity session.
