Abstract
One example method includes receiving an IO request that specifies an operation to be performed concerning a data block, determining if a policy exists for a device that made the IO request, when a policy is determined to exist for the device, comparing the IO request to the policy, recording the IO request, and passing the IO request to a disk driver regardless of whether the IO request is determined to violate the policy or not.
