US Patent 11403394 Preventing selective events of a computing environment

Detecting and preventing selected events within a computing environment. A determination is made as to whether a selected event of the computing environment is consistent with a historical pattern of selected events of the computing environment. Based on determining the selected event is inconsistent with the historical pattern of selected events, processing associated with the selected event is delayed. Based on delaying processing associated with the selected event, a determination is made as to whether the selected event is valid. Based on determining that the selected event is valid, processing associated with the selected event is resumed.
