Define: Behavioral analytics?
Behavioral analytics is a recent advancement in business analytics that reveals new insights into the behavior of consumers on eCommerce platforms, online games, web and mobile applications, and IoT. The rapid increase in the volume of raw event data generated by the digital world enables methods that go beyond typical analysis by demographics and other traditional metrics that tell us what kind of people took what actions in the past. Behavioral analysis focuses on understanding how consumers act and why, enabling accurate predictions about how they are likely to act in the future. It enables marketers to make the right offers to the right consumer segments at the right time.

Worse yet, 90% of businesses cannot afford such measures as ineffective as they are. To do this they collect metadata from every data flow in motion.
If it moves they will see it. Next they apply a set of advanced threat models and use machine-learning algorithms to catch the threats.
In order to do this they must apply machine learning to differentiate threat behavior from those behaviors that are normal. They then correlate these behaviors together to confirm the threat and determine its confidence score.
