Abstract

In one embodiment, a method includes detecting a recordable transfer event on a source device. The recordable transfer event comprises a transfer of data between the source device and one or more destination devices in a peer-to-peer network. The method further includes generating, on the source device, a log of the recordable transfer event. In addition, the method includes, responsive to a determination that the source device lacks an infrastructure network connection, transmitting the log to at least one destination device so that the at least one destination device can report the log to a reporting node.
