An approach to intrusion detection that establishes a baseline model of behavior for users and components in a computer system or network. Deviations from the baseline cause alerts that direct the attention of human operators to the anomalies)

Any deviation from the profile is flagged as a potential attack. It is commonly referred to as a positive security model because it seeks only to identify all known good behaviors and assumes that everything else is bad)
