Abstract:
1. A method comprising: assigning, by a server computer system, an anonymous cloud account to a user in response to a determination that identity information of the user is validated for a user request to access a cloud, wherein the anonymous cloud account does not reveal an identity of the user to the cloud; creating mapping data associating the user with the anonymous cloud account, wherein the mapping data is not made available to the cloud; facilitating user access to the cloud based on the anonymous cloud account; receiving, by the server computer system, cloud access pattern data associated with the anonymous cloud account from the cloud, wherein the cloud access pattern data is generated by the cloud for the anonymous cloud account without the cloud determining the identity of the user; and correlating the cloud access pattern data with the mapping data to identify the user that accessed cloud content specified in the cloud access pattern data.
