System and method for providing configurable security monitoring utilizing an integrated information portal
First Claim
1. In an integrated information portal in communication with a number of monitoring devices, a method for monitoring information, the method comprising:
- obtaining a set of user defined monitoring rules, wherein the user defined monitoring rules establish an event threshold for a rule violation and a corresponding response;
obtaining monitoring device data from one or more of the monitoring devices;
processing the monitoring device data according to the user defined monitoring rules; and
generating an output corresponding to the user defined monitoring rules, wherein the output may include no output.

Abstract
A system and method for implementing a configurable security monitor utilizing an integrated information portal are provided. A premises server is in communication with a variety of information sources that produce monitoring data for a defined monitoring target, such as a premises. The premises server transmits the monitoring data to a central server that receives the data and traverses one or more logical rule sets to determine whether the inputted data violates the rules. The rules are generally specified by a user, such as a system administrator to define the level of monitoring desired and an appropriate response in the evaluation of the monitoring data against the rule. Based on an evaluation of the rules, the central server then generates outputs in the form of communication to one or more authorized users via a variety of communication mediums and devices and/or the
