Zusammenfassung:Computing systems and methods for detecting anomalous activity over a computer network are described herein. A computing system receives a real-time stream of electronic messages, each of the electronic messages including a first identifier, wherein a portion of the first identifier includes a second identifier. The computing system applies a detection model to the real-time stream of electronic messages, wherein the detection model is programmed to apply at least one machine learning algorithm trained to detect that a velocity of the electronic messages for a range of first identifiers having a common value second identifier exceeds a threshold. In response to the threshold being exceeded, a time period associated with anomalous activity is identified and an anomalous activity flag is appended to messages initiated during the time period associated with anomalous activity which include a first identifier having the common value in the second identifier.
