Abstract
A document handling device receives a request to perform a task on document data, the document data comprising at least one of an electronic document to be converted by the document handling device into a non-digital form or a physical document received by the document handling device in the non-digital form. Responsive to receiving the request, the document handling device makes a determination as to whether the requested task violates a data loss prevention policy, and performs an action based on the determination.
