Method and system for determining incident impact
A method and system for determining an impact of an incident. An occurrence of an incident is identified. One or more persons at least potentially impacted by the incident are identified based on dynamic indications. After the occurrence, one or more indicators associated with the one or more persons identified are detected. Based on the indicators, the extent to which the persons identified have been impacted by the incident is assessed.
1 . A method for determining an impact of an incident, comprising:
identifying an occurrence of an incident;
identifying one or more persons at least potentially impacted by the incident based on one or more dynamic indications;
after the occurrence, detecting one or more indicators associated with the one or more persons identified;
based on one or more of the one or more indicators, assessing the extent to which the one or more persons identified have been impacted by the incident.
2 . The method of claim 1 wherein the one or more dynamic indications comprise activity by one or more of the one or more persons during a time period associated with the occurrence and in a location associated with the occurrence.
3 . The method of claim 1 , wherein identifying the one or more persons at least potentially impacted by the incident is based further on one or more static data elements.
4 . The method of claim 3 wherein the one or more static elements comprise one or more of a primary work location of one or more of the one or more persons and a home of one or more of the one or more persons.
5 . The method of claim 1 wherein the one or more indicators comprise at least one of: building access activity, mobile phone activity, mobile electronic mail activity and remote login activity.
6 . The method of claim 1 wherein assessing the extent to which the one or more persons identified have been impacted by the incident is based further on observation notes relating to the one or more persons.
7 . A computer-readable medium comprising instructions which, when executed by a processor cause the processor to perform a method for determining an impact of an incident the method comprising:
identifying an occurrence of an incident;
identifying one or more persons at least potentially impacted by the incident based on one or more dynamic indications;
after the occurrence, detecting one or more indicators associated with the one or more persons identified;
based on one or more of the one or more indicators, assessing the extent to which the one or more persons identified have been impacted by the incident.
8 . The computer-readable medium of claim 7 wherein the one or more dynamic indications comprise activity by one or more of the one or more persons during a time period associated with the occurrence and in a location associated with the occurrence.
9 . The computer-readable medium of claim 7 , wherein identifying the one or more persons at least potentially impacted by the incident is based further on one or more static data elements.
10 . The computer-readable medium of claim 9 wherein the one or more static elements comprise one or more of a primary work location of one or more of the one or more persons and a home of one or more of the one or more persons.
11 . The computer-readable medium of claim 7 wherein the one or more indicators comprise at least one of: building access activity, mobile phone activity, mobile electronic mail activity and remote login activity.
12 . The computer-readable medium of claim 7 wherein assessing the extent to which the one or more persons identified have been impacted by the incident is based further on observation notes relating to the one or more persons.
13 . A system for determining an impact of an incident, the method comprising:
one or more databases that store incident information identifying an occurrence of an incident, and
a processor that:
identifies one or more persons at least potentially impacted by the incident based on one or more dynamic indications;
after the occurrence, detects one or more indicators associated with the one or more persons identified; and
based on one or more of the one or more indicators, assesses the extent to which the one or more persons identified have been impacted by the incident.
14 . The system of claim 13 wherein the one or more dynamic indications comprise activity by one or more of the one or more persons during a time period associated with the occurrence and in a location associated with the occurrence.
15 . The system of claim 13 wherein identifying the one or more persons at least potentially impacted by the incident is based further on one or more static data elements.
16 . The system of claim 15 wherein the one or more static elements comprise one or more of a primary work location of one or more of the one or more persons and a home of one or more of the one or more persons.
17 . The system of claim 15 wherein the one or more indicators comprise at least one of: building access activity, mobile phone activity, mobile electronic mail activity and remote login activity.
18 . The system of claim 15 wherein assessing the extent to which the one or more persons identified have been impacted by the incident is based further on observation notes relating to the one or more persons.
