Methods and systems for providing benchmark information under controlled access
First Claim
1. An electronic data structure comprising:
- benchmark information;
an authorizing section for accessing the benchmark information comprising one or more entries selected from the group consisting of description of an entity, a start authorized access date, an end authorized access date, a description field, a check-sum block, a default identifier, and an authorized content.

Abstract
An electronic data structure comprises benchmark information and an authorizing section for access to said benchmark information. A method processes and stores data objects by means of one or more processes running in a computer system having one or more of the electronic data structures. A request for benchmark information is received from a second party, the request including identification information of the second party. The benchmark information is analyzed to determine whether it contains in its electronic data structures and whether the authorizing section of the electronic data structure includes the identification information. Based on the determination, the benchmark information is presented to the second party.
