Patent attributes
Managing privacy controls in an information handling system to allow Information Technology Decision Makers (ITDMs) to prevent unwanted disclosure of information while allowing users to work together. A first privacy policy is asserted to protect information. When a user device requests an override to access an I/O device, embodiments analyze device parameters and application parameters to determine whether to authorize the use of the I/O device. If the override request is authorized, the user is able to access the I/O device and a new privacy policy is asserted. If a device parameter changes, embodiments may assess whether the change could result in unwanted disclosure of information and dynamically change the privacy policy to prevent the disclosure.
