US 2016/0261635 A1 · TRIGGER EVENTS AND CONFIRMATION IN DIGITAL ASSET MANAGEMENT

Abstract

Trigger events and confirmation in digital asset management are provided. A service such as a management service monitors digital assets of an asset owner and content associated with the asset owner hosted at external resources. A trigger event is detected within the content or the digital assets. The trigger event identifies information about an incapacitation of the asset owner. A notification is transmitted to an asset manager to prompt the asset manager to validate an incapacitation of the asset owner associated with the trigger event. In response to a confirmation of the incapacitation, actions are executed to dispose of the digital assets.
