1. A system implemented on a computing device having a memory and a processor, for determining information about a resource, said system comprising:
- a compliance and usage profiler generating statistics of use of resources by users of said resources in an organization, each said resource having a set of use-related attributes;
a crowd profiler configured to generate a targeted subset of users in said organization in response to an administrator instruction to update a selected one of said use-related attributes of at least one selected resource of said organization, said selected attribute having associated statistics of use, said crowd profiler to analyze statistics of use of said at least one selected resource and to generate said targeted subset of users as those users in said organization whose statistics of use match said associated statistics of use;
an addresser configured to question each of said subset of users about a list of owners of selected resource, the addresser to further question each of the subset of users about any known malicious activity associated with the resource; and
a collector configured to collect and analyze information received from said subset of users and to update said selected attribute of said resource accordingly.
