Cooperative biometrics abnormality detection system (C-BAD)
First Claim
1. An integrated sensor and information system comprising:
- a central computer system with rule-based software;
said central computer containing models selected from a group consisting of abnormality, normality, personnel risks, security compartments, event reporting, external event resolution, investigation procedures, external resolution, external relationships resolution, and archiving repository;
personnel identification sensors selected from the group consisting of contactless sensors, proximity sensors, tokens, keys, cards, and biometrics;
a communication network to link said sensors to said central computer;
said personnel identification sensors configured as physical access sensors selected from the group consisting of hallways sensors, floors and areas sensors, safes, and cabinets sensors, internal and external doors sensors; and
said personnel identification sensors configured as information access sensors selected from the group consisting of computers, printers, files, and copy or duplication commands.

Abstract
The Cooperative Biometrics Abnormality Detection (C-BAD) system is a network of sensors that track personnel throughout physical locations, communications, and computer systems. These systems are then linked to a central computer that contains detailed information on the individual, and rule-based risk, relationship, and abnormality models that will deter, detect, and document possible insiders. It is only at this point that C-BAD will then objectively report suspicious activities to a supervisory team for further investigation. (C-BAD) This System replaces previous current labor-intensive, subjective analysis, which has proven to be a weak deterrent and fraught with human error. C-BAD uses a full spectrum of sensors that identify personnel through the use of contact, contactless, biometrics, smart cards, or a combination of any one of these. The C-BAD central monitoring computer contains an inference engine based on artificial intelligence or a rule-based system, which reviews databases and furnished information.

- 8. The method of detecting organizational internal threats comprising the steps of monitoring a sensor suite of physical access, information access sensors, and communications sensors, where as the monitoring system has a rule based, artificial intelligent system to indicate abnormalities in pattern, procedures or activities and notifies an investigation team for abnormality resolution.
