APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR MONITORING AND CONTROLLING ACCESS TO DATA ON A COMPUTER READABLE MEDIUM
摘要
The invention provides a device driver for monitoring and controlling access to data on a computer readable medium. The device driver comprises an interface for access to a device-driver stack for a media drive, a detector for detecting the insertion of a computer readable medium in said media drive, and a monitor for monitoring data transfer from said computer readable medium. The monitor evaluates a behavior characteristic of an application accessing data on said computer readable medium, and indicates when said behavior characteristic fulfills predetermined criteria. A control system is responsive to said monitor for issuing at least one control output when said behavior characteristic fulfills said predetermined criteria. The invention also provides a method of monitoring and controlling access to data on a computer readable medium by means of the device driver.
