A system includes a network adapter operable to interface with one or more computer networks. The system also includes a processing system operably coupled to the network adapter and configured to perform a plurality of operations. The operations include monitoring for a request to transfer data from a file including a self-destruction indicator, determining a targeted destination of the data based on detecting the request to transfer the data from the file including the self-destruction indicator, and determining whether the targeted destination is within an allowed network list associated with the file. The system prevents the transfer of data from the file to the targeted destination through the network adapter based on determining that the allowed network list excludes the targeted destination.
