US Patent 11924271 Preventing duplicative file processing

In some implementations, a device may determine whether an existing record for a file, received at a file storage location, is present in a record log. The device may generate, based on determining that the existing record for the file is not present in the record log, a record for the file in the record log. The record may identify the file and a first region. The device may determine, after generating the record, whether the record has been changed to identify a second region. The device may process the file based on determining that the record has not been changed to identify the second region.
