Abstract:

An approach for enabling the monitoring of high risk users is described. A high risk user (HRU) event management platform designates a user as a high risk user candidate and then initiates monitoring of activities of a computing device associated with identity information of the user. The HRU event management platform then collects data from the computing device and from one or more data sources according to one or more predetermined parameters specifying asset information. The data is correlated with the identity information of the user for confirming that the user is a high risk user.
