1. An asset management system stored on a storage medium, comprising:
- a sensing component that monitors field conditions with respect to an industrial environment;
an analysis component that analyzes the field conditions and determines that an unexpected event has occurred and retrieves audit logs that include changes associated with the industrial environment from a data repository and determines a cause of the unexpected event and whether the unexpected event is related to an authorized change or a rogue attack; and
a security component that identifies a user and the user'"'"'s rights, and determines authorization to verify or edit at least one of an asset, the audit log, the industrial environment, or a portion of the industrial environment.

Abstract
The subject invention relates to a system and/or method that facilitates assessing unexpected field conditions based upon the verification of an audit log. A sensing component can monitor field conditions with respect to an industrial environment. An analysis component can analyze the field conditions and determine that an unexpected event has occurred and retrieve audit logs from a data repository to determine cause of the unexpected event.
