Abstract
Embodiments relate to systems, devices, and computer-implemented methods for preventing determination of previous access of sensitive content by receiving, from a user, a request for content at a device in an information centric network, where a cached version of the content is locally stored at the device; initiating a time delay based on a determination that the user has not previously requested the content; and transmitting the cached version of the content to the user after the time delay.
Claims10
A computer-implemented method, comprising:
- receiving, at a first device, a request for content from a user device, wherein a cached version of the content is locally stored at the device;
- determining that the user device has not previously requested the content from the first device;
- initiating a time delay in response to determining that the user device has not previously requested the content from the first device;
- and
- transmitting the cached version of the content to the user device once the time delay terminates.
2 more elements
A computing device, comprising:
- a memory that includes instructions;
- and
- a processor coupled to the memory and, when executing the instructions, is configured to:
- receive a request for content from a user device, wherein a cached version of the content is stored locally,
- determine that the user device has not previously requested the content from the computing device,
- initiate a time delay in response to determining that the user device has not previously requested the content from the computing;
- and
- transmit the cached version of the content to the user device once the time delay has terminated.
