Claim Text:
1. A system comprising: a network interface component for collecting at least one parameter for a communication device; a non-transitory memory storing the at least one parameter, device history data for the communication device, at least one device attribute for the communication device, and a network risk determination associated with the communication device; and at least one hardware processor coupled to the non-transitory memory and configured to read instructions from the non-transitory memory to cause the system to perform operations comprising: generating a universally unique identifier (UUID) for the communication device using the at least one parameter; determining, a risk level for the communication device using the device history data, the at least one device attribute, and the network risk determination comprising a weight of the network risk determination in the risk level that decreases with an increasing length of time since an update of the network risk determination and a weight of the network risk determination for an IP address that is based on a timestamp of calculating the network risk determination for the IP address and that decreases in significance as the timestamp ages; associating, the risk level with the UUID, and wherein the update of the network risk determination is based on an additive increase/multiplicative decrease (AIMD) algorithm.
