DISTRIBUTED DATA REVOCATION USING DATA COMMANDS

A policy proxy intercepts a data stream between a data server and a user or other device, identifies the user device, and identifies a policy in an integrated policy server applicable to the user device based on the identity of the user device. The policy proxy may identify one or more of the policy elements based on the user device, and translate the policy elements into actions involving the data stream between the data server and the user device so as to implement at least one aspect of the identified policy. The actions can comprise permitting normal exchange of data between the data server and the user device, preventing communication between the data server and the user device, or modifying the data stream between the data server and the user device.
