            Report Anomaly

            An anomaly is any user activity that is sufficiently different from the historical activity of the same user. We use the metadata in Salesforce Core application logs about report generation and surrounding activities to build a baseline model of the historical activity. We then compare any new report generation activity against this baseline to determine if the new activity is sufficiently different to be called an anomaly. We don't look at the actual data that a user interacts with— we look at how the user interacts with the data.

            • Training and Inference Steps
              Similar to other machine learning or statistical models, our detection model has a familiar two-step process: a training step and an inference or detection step. As a customer, you don't perform either of these steps—Salesforce performs them for you. You only review the detection events generated by our detection mode and take further action if necessary.
            • Investigate Report Anomalies
              It's often necessary to further investigate a report anomaly to either rule it out as benign or to determine if a data breach occurred.
