System and method for determining a volatile file based on a selection factor

An apparatus for sorting and ordering data based on filtering parameters comprises a memory operable to store a digital folder and a processor operably coupled to the memory. The processor is configured to receive a transmission comprising verification of an interaction session established between a first user and an entity and to receive file information corresponding to one or more files stored in the digital folder from an external exchange. The processor is further configured to generate a file vector comprising the one or more files of the digital folder that is sorted based on applying a selection factor to the received file information for each of the one or more files. The processor is further configured to send a transmission to a user device comprising the file vector and an indication to utilize a first file of the file vector during the interaction session.
