Anomalous access activity is detected and managed. Access of enterprise data on multiple client computers is monitored and logged. The resulting log information identifies accessed units of enterprise data and corresponding access context. Log information concerning access of specific units of data on multiple client computers is received over a period of time and amalgamated. Statistical analysis is performed on amalgamated log information, thereby determining access baselines for data over the time period. Received log information concerning access of a specific unit of data on a specific client computer is compared to corresponding access baseline(s). Responsive to the comparison indicating that the access deviates from a baseline in excess of a threshold, the access is classified as being anomalous. Alerts are automatically output in response to detecting anomalous data access. Reports documenting data access activity on multiple client computers over time are generated, based on amalgamated log information.
