1. A network system comprising:
- one or more client computers connected to one or more servers in an enterprise via network;
a background data characterizer, executed on a computer, for;
receiving at least one user data access permissions metric specified by a human operator and at least one content based data characteristic specified by said human operator, said at least one user data access permissions metric being associated with a user other than said human operator;
identifying a data subset for content based on said at least one user data access permissions metric of said data subset specified by said human operator; and
characterizing data of interest at least by said at least one content based data characteristic and according to said at least one user data access permissions metric specified by said human operator;
near real time data matching functionality, executed by the computer, for selecting said data of interest by considering only data elements which have both said at least one content based data characteristic and said at least one user data access permissions metric from among multiplicity of data elements; and
a search functionality, executed by the computer, for automatically redefining a field of search in accordance with said at least one user data access permissions metric multiple times, and wherein the multiplicity of data elements includes data element status monitoring functionality, noting a current status of data elements that have been modified, added or removed in accordance with changes in said at least one user data access permissions metric, wherein said at least one user data access permissions metric is a dynamic metric which changes over time during operation of the enterprise, wherein said near real time data matching functionality comprises a background field of search definition and an automatic field of search redefinition, wherein said selecting the data of interest by considering only data elements which have at least one content characteristic and said at least one user data access permissions metric from among the multiplicity of data elements includes;
searching for data elements which have said at least one content characteristic;
automatically redefining, by the computer, said field of search in accordance with said at least one user data access permissions metric multiple times and searching within said field of search multiple times, wherein said at least one user data access permissions metric is different at least some of said multiple times;
identifying data elements from among said multiplicity of data elements in accordance with said at least one user data access permissions metric, the data of interest from among a multiplicity of data elements being stored in said multiple platforms in said enterprise;
combining results of said searching and said identifying data elements, wherein the results of said searching being ordered at least in accordance with at least one user data access permissions metric related prioritization characteristic; and
providing the ordered results to the client computer via the network.

Abstract
A system for identifying data of interest from among a multiplicity of data elements residing on multiple platforms in an enterprise, the system including background data characterization functionality characterizing the data of interest at least by at least one content characteristic thereof and at least one access metric thereof, the at least one access metric being selected from data access permissions and actual data access history and near real time data matching functionality selecting the data of interest by considering only data elements which have the at least one content characteristic thereof and the at least one access metric thereof from among the multiplicity of data elements.

3. A computer-implemented method for identifying data of interest from among a multiplicity of data elements residing on multiple platforms in an enterprise, the method comprising:
-
a background data characterizer executed on a computer, to receive at least one user data access permissions metric specified by a human operator and at least one content based data characteristic specified by said human operator, said user is different from said human operator; identifying, by the computer, a data subset for content based on said at least one user data access permissions metric of said data subset specified by said human operator; and
characterizing, by the background characterizer executed by the computer, the data of interest at least by said at least one content based data characteristic and according to said at least one user data access permissions metric specified by said human operator; andselecting, by near real time data matching functionality executed by the computer, the data of interest by considering only data elements which have both said at least one content based data characteristic and said at least one user data access permissions metric from among said multiplicity of data elements, said near real time data matching functionality comprising a background field of search definition and an automatic field of search redefinition and search functionality operative to automatically redefine a field of search in accordance with said at least one user data access permissions metric multiple times, and said multiplicity of data elements including data element status monitoring functionality, noting a current status of data elements that have been modified, added or removed in accordance with changes in said at least one user data access permissions metric, wherein said at least one user data access permissions metric is a dynamic metric which changes over time during operation of the enterprise, and said selecting the data of interest by considering only data elements which have at least one content characteristic thereof and said at least one user data access permissions metric thereof from among said multiplicity of data elements including; searching, by the computer, for data elements which have said at least one content characteristic; automatically redefining, by the computer, the field of search in accordance with said at least one user data access permissions metric multiple times and searching within said field of search multiple times, wherein said at least one user data access permissions metric is different at least some of said multiple times; identifying, by the computer, data elements from among said multiplicity of data elements in accordance with said at least one user data access permissions metric, the data of interest from among a multiplicity of data elements being stored in said multiple platforms in said enterprise; combining, by the computer, results of said searching for data elements and said identifying data elements, wherein the results of said searching being ordered at least in accordance with said at least one user data access permissions metric related prioritization characteristic; and providing the ordered results to a user computer via a network. - View Dependent Claims (4)
