applying security matching criteria to the first and second user profiles;
determining a degree to which the users of the first and second user monitors are permitted to exchange information according to security matching criteria;
generating and sending a first security alert signal comprising a first security attribute to the first user monitor and generating and sending a second security alert signal comprising a second security attribute to a second user monitor;
whereinthe first user monitor is further configured to communicate the first matching attribute to the second region of the first match indicator, and wherein,the second user monitor is further configured to communicate the second matching attribute to the second region of the second match indicator, and wherein,the first match indicator is visible to the user of the second user monitor and wherein the second region of the first match indicator displays the first security attribute so as to be informative to the user of the second user monitor of a degree to which the users of the first and second user monitors are permitted to exchange information according to the security matching criteria; and
the second match indicator is visible to the user of the first user monitor and wherein the second region of the second match indicator displays the second security attribute so as to be informative to the user of the first user monitor of a degree to which the users of the first and second user monitors are permitted to exchange information according to the security matching criteria.

Abstract
A system and method for displaying a security alert. First and second user monitors are configured to communicate with an interrogator to establish the presence of the user monitors in a defined space. An information server is configured to determine a degree to which the users of the first and second user monitors are permitted to exchange information according to security matching criteria applied to user profiles. Security alert signals are sent to first and second match indicators. The first match indicator is visible to the user of the second user monitor so as to be informative to the user of the second user monitor of a degree to which the users of the first and second user monitors are permitted to exchange information according to the security matching criteria. The second match indicator is visible to the user of the first user monitor so as to be informative to the user of the first user monitor of a degree to which the users of the first and second user monitors are permitted to exchange information according to the security matching criteria.
