Abstract
Data security access and management may require a server dedicated to monitoring document access requests and enforcing rules and policies to limit access to those who are not specifically identified as having access to the data. One example of operation may include selecting data to be protected via a user device, applying at least one policy to the data, storing the at least one policy in a data record identifying the data, modifying a data format of the data to create a modified data, and storing the modified data in memory.
Claims14
A method, comprising:
- tagging, via a user device, data to identify that the data is to be secured and to limit access to the data to a user profile that is assigned a right to access the data, wherein a type of data tag assigned to the data designates that the user profile can access secured data according to at least one policy linked to the user profile and stored remotely from a data record storing the data;
- and
- responsive to tagging the data, modifying, via the user device, a data format of the data to create secured modified data, wherein the secured modified data is stored in a different file format than a file format of the data;
- wrapping, via the user device, the secured modified data in an HTML shell, the HTML shell including information associated with the at least one watermark policy, and where the information associated with the at least one watermark policy is also overlaid on the modified data;
- identifying, via the user device, data access command, from a user associated with the user profile, to access the secured modified data;
- receiving, via the user device, the at least one watermark policy linked to the user profile;
- executing, via the user device, the data access command to access the wrapped secured modified data based on the at least one watermark policy and the information included in the HTML shell and the information overlaid on the secured modified data.

An apparatus, comprising:
- a hardware processor configured to:
- tag the data to identify that the data is to be secured and to limit access to the data to a user profile that is are assigned a right to access the data, wherein a type of data tag assigned to the data designates that the user profile can access secured data according to at least one policy linked to the user profile and stored remotely from a data record storing the data;
- responsive to the data being tagged, modify a data format of the data to create secured modified data, wherein the secured modified data is stored in a different file format than a file format of the data;
- wrap the secured modified data in an HTML shell, the HTML shell including information associated with the at least one watermark policy, and where the information associated with the at least one watermark policy is also overlaid on the modified data:
- identify a data access command, from a user associated with the user profile, to access the secured modified data;
- receive the at least one watermark policy linked to the user profile;
- execute the data access command to access the wrapped secured modified data based on the at least one watermark policy and the information included in the HTML shell and the information overlaid on the secured modified data.

A non-transitory computer readable storage medium configured to store one or more instructions that when executed by a processor causes the processor to perform:
- tagging, via a user device, data to identify that the data is to be secured and to limit access to the data to a user profile that is assigned a right to access the data, wherein a type of data tag assigned to the data designates that the user profile can access secured data according to at least one policy linked to the user profile and stored remotely from a data, record storing the data;
- and
- responsive to tagging the data, modifying, via the user device, a data format of the data to create secured modified data, wherein the secured modified data is stored in a different file format than a file format of the data;
- wrapping, via the user device, the secured modified data in an HTML shell, the HTML shell including information associated with the at least one watermark policy, and where the information associated with the at least one watermark policy is also overlaid on the modified data:
- identifying, via the user device, data access command, from a user associated with the user profile, to access the secured modified data;
- receiving, via the user device, the at least one watermark policy linked to the user profile;
- executing, via the user device, the data access command to access the wrapped secured modified data based on the at least one watermark policy and the information included in the HTML shell and the information overlaid on the secured modified data.
