Abstract:
1. A system for assessing suspicious behavior, comprising: processing means adapted to receive data packages from a plurality of data sources, each of said data packages containing information about an individual to include identity data and biometric features unique to said individual; storage means coupled to said processing means for storing said data packages; said processing means forming a plurality of biometric data packages from each of said data packages with each of said plurality of biometric data packages containing information about one of said biometric features and said identity data associated with said individual; first library means coupled to said processing means for categorically storing each of said plurality of biometric data packages based on said one of said biometric features associated therewith; said processing means further adapted to receive a current query from a requesting source, said current query including at least one monitored biometric feature of an individual of interest; second library means coupled to said processing means for storing each said current query to thereby generate a plurality of queries, each of said plurality of queries having said at least one monitored biometric feature associated therewith; said processing means utilizing said first library means to perform a first correlation between said monitored biometric feature associated with said current query and said one of said biometric features associated with each of said plurality of biometric data packages, wherein said individual of interest is considered to be identified by said identity data contained in each of said plurality of biometric data packages for which said first correlation achieves a first threshold criteria; said processing means utilizing said second library means to perform a second correlation between said monitored biometric feature associated with said current query and said monitored biometric feature associated with each of said plurality of queries, wherein an alert message is generated each time said second correlation achieves a second threshold criteria; and transmitting means coupled to said processing means for transmitting, to at least said requesting source, results of said first correlation to include said individual of interest so-identified and results of said second correlation to include each said alert message so-generated.
