1. A method of managing information of a system comprising: providing a plurality of information management rules; providing an activity database; gathering activity data from a first target in the activity database; gathering activity data from a second target in the activity database, wherein the first target is a different entity from the second target; associating at least a first rule of the plurality of information management rules to the first target; evaluating the gathered activity data from the first and second targets according to a detection algorithm, wherein the detection algorithm detects at least one of: a first condition comprising the first target has attempted to access a unit of information more than X1 times in a Y1 time period; or a second condition comprising the first target has attempted to access more than X2 units of information in a Y2 time period; based on the detection algorithm, determining at least one of the first or second conditions has occurred, associating a second rule of the plurality of information management rules to the first target; for the first target, controlling usage of information based on the at least first rule and second rule of the plurality of information management rules; based on the detection algorithm, determining at least one of the first or second conditions occurring, associating an additional second rule to the first target; for the first target, controlling usage of information based on the at least first rule of the plurality of information management rules and the additional second rule; for a first activity at the first target, evaluating whether the at least first rule of the plurality of information management rules applies based on the first activity; and for the first activity at the first target, evaluating whether the additional second rule applies based on the first activity, wherein the additional second rule comprises a first abstraction, the first abstraction is defined in a first definition statement stored separately from the additional second rule and the first abstraction.
