METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR CORRELATING SELF-REPORTING VIRTUAL ASSET DATA WITH EXTERNAL EVENTS TO GENERATE AN EXTERNAL EVENT IDENTIFICATION DATABASE

摘要

A method and system for correlating patterns of operating virtual assets with external events includes receiving an identification of one of the external events, from one or more electronic sources, and receiving first patterns from one or more first virtual assets, according to one embodiment. The method and system include populating a database with the first patterns and the identification of the one of the external events to map the one of the external events to the first patterns, according to one embodiment. The method and system include receiving second patterns from one or more second virtual assets, and comparing the second patterns to the first patterns, according to one embodiment. The method and system include distributing the identification of the one of the external events to the one or more second virtual assets, if the second patterns are similar to the first patterns, according to one embodiment.
