User profiling based on multiple aspects of activity in a computer system

The paper concerns behavioral biometrics, specifically issues related to the verification of the identity of computer systems users based on user profiling. The profiling method for creating a behavioral profile based on multiple aspects of user activity in a computer system is presented. The work is devoted to the analysis of user activity in environments with a graphical user interface GUI. Mouse activity, keyboard and software usage are taken into consideration. Additionally, an attempt to intrusion detection based on the proposed profiling method and statistical measures is performed. Preliminary studies show that the proposed profiling method could be useful in detecting an intruder masquerading as an authorized user of the computer system. This article presents the preliminary research and conclusions
