Abstract: Leakage of secure content (e.g., unauthorized dissemination of secure content) is prevented even after a user has downloaded a copy of the secure content. In a content management system, the secure content object is accessible by users who access the secure content by downloading copies. While the downloading of a copy to a user device is permitted, further dissemination is not allowed. To enforce this degree of security, the user downloads a virtual file system that is configured to store a local instance of the secure content object in a secure container of the user device. During ongoing operation of the user device, every data movement operation request associated with the local instance of the secure content object is intercepted. Logic implemented in the downloaded a virtual file system will deny any data movement operation request when a target storage location associated with the data movement operation request is other than a location in the secure container.
