Abstract: The techniques described herein include data security systems and methods adapted to protect stored data from unauthorized access. Encryption keys can be maintained on a removable media that allow an authorized user of an agent computing device to access encrypted portions of the removable media. The agent computing device controls access using predefined access control information. An access elimination command communicated to the agent computing device can prevent further access to encrypted data on the removable media.
