  • SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PREVENTING DATA LOSS USING VIRTUAL MACHINE WRAPPED APPLICATIONS
    Publication number: 20170134436
    Abstract: A method in one example implementation includes selecting at least one criterion for controlling data transmission from within a virtual machine. At least one application is included within the virtual machine, which includes a policy module. The selected criterion corresponds to at least one policy associated with the policy module. The method also includes evaluating the selected criterion of the policy to permit an attempt to transmit the data from within the virtual machine. In more specific embodiments, the policy may include a plurality of criteria with a first selected criterion permitting transmission of the data to a first application and a second selected criterion prohibiting transmission of the data to a second application. In another specific embodiment, the method may include updating the policy module through an administration module to modify the selected criterion.
