Abstract
A system that incorporates teachings of the present disclosure may include, for example, a web server having a controller adapted to manage an archive of media content for a subscriber, and record a transaction description and a corresponding tracking identifier for a transaction that manipulates the archive. Other embodiments are disclosed.
Claims20
A communication device, comprising:
- a memory to store instructions;
- and
- a processor coupled to the memory, wherein responsive to executing the instructions, the processor performs operations comprising:
- receiving a notice responsive to an anomalous transaction associated with an archive storing a plurality of media content files of a subscriber, wherein the notice comprises a tracking number for the anomalous transaction and at least a portion of a description of the anomalous transaction, and wherein the anomalous transaction corresponds to one of reviewing, retrieving, editing or deleting one of the plurality of media content files of the subscriber;
- and
- sending a request for a detailed description of the anomalous transaction,
- wherein the anomalous transaction associated with the archive storing the plurality of media content files of the subscriber is identified by detecting a difference between a detected transaction and a behavior profile of the subscriber comprising past detected transactions by the subscriber, and
- wherein the operations further comprise:
- receiving location coordinates from a global positioning system receiver;
- sending the location coordinates to a communication system, wherein changes in the location coordinates indicate a presence of the subscriber in transit with the communication device;
- and
- receiving a countermeasure to address effects of the anomalous transaction.

A presence server, comprising:
- a memory to store instructions;
- and
- a processor coupled to the memory, wherein responsive to executing the instructions, the processor performs operations comprising:
- receiving a request for presence information for a subscriber responsive to an anomalous transaction associated with an archive storing a plurality of media content files of the subscriber;
- detecting the subscriber present with a communication device;
- and
- sending an identification of the communication device, wherein a notice of the anomalous transaction is reported to the communication device,
- wherein the anomalous transaction associated with the archive storing the plurality of media content files of the subscriber is determined by detecting a difference between a detected transaction and a behavior profile of the subscriber comprising past detected transactions by the subscriber, and
- wherein the operations further comprise:
- receiving location coordinates from the communication device, wherein the location coordinates are derived from a global position system receiver;
- detecting changes in the location coordinates of the communication device to indicate the subscriber is in transit with the communication device;
- and
- detecting network activity emanating from the communication device operating in a building to indicate the subscriber is present with the communication device.
10 more elements
A tangible computer-readable storage device, comprising computer instructions which, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to perform operations comprising:
- determining an anomalous transaction associated with an archive storing a plurality of media content files of a subscriber responsive to detecting a difference between a detected transaction and a behavior profile of the subscriber comprising past detected transactions by the subscriber;
- and
- transmitting a notice to a communication device of the subscriber responsive to the anomalous transaction, wherein the notice comprises a tracking number for the anomalous transaction and at least a portion of a description of the anomalous transaction,
- wherein the anomalous transaction associated with the archive storing the plurality of media content files of the subscriber is determined by detecting a difference between a detected transaction and a behavior profile of the subscriber comprising past detected transactions by the subscriber, and
- wherein the operations further comprise:
- receiving presence information for the subscriber responsive to the anomalous transaction;
- and
- sending to the communication device of the subscriber a countermeasure to address effects of the anomalous transaction.
