Abstract
A software defined data security level method, computer program product, and data processing system. One embodiment may comprise intercepting, by a processor at a data security layer, an input/output (IO) request from a local software application, wherein the IO request includes a header and a data payload, analyzing, by the processor at the data security layer, the data payload of the IO request relative to a service level agreement (SLA), assigning, by the processor at the data security layer, a security level to the IO request based on the analysis.
Claims20
A software defined data security level method, comprising:
- intercepting, by a processor at a data security layer, an input/output (IO) request from a local software application, wherein the IO request includes a header and a data payload;
- analyzing, by the processor at the data security layer, the data payload of the IO request relative to a service level agreement (SLA);
- and
- assigning, by the processor at the data security layer, a security level to the IO request based on the analysis.
A data processing system, comprising a processor and a memory coupled to the processor, wherein the memory contains program instructions executable by the processor to cause the processor to:
- intercept, at a data security layer, an input/output (IO) request from a local software application, wherein the IO request includes a header and a data payload;
- analyze, at the data security layer, the data payload of the IO request relative to a service level agreement (SLA);
- and
- assign, at the data security layer, a security level to the IO request based on the analysis.
A computer program product for a software defined data security layer, the computer program product comprising a computer readable storage medium having program instructions embodied therewith, the program instructions executable by a processor to cause the processor to:
- intercept, at a data security layer, an input/output (IO) request from a local software application, wherein the IO request includes a header and a data payload;
- analyze, at the data security layer, the data payload of the IO request relative to a service level agreement (SLA);
- and
- assign, at the data security layer, a security level to the IO request based on the analysis.
