Abstract
A system is described for monitoring information access. The system provides an access monitoring application to an information accessing system. The access monitoring application monitors information accessed by the information accessing system. Data is received from the information accessing system which identifies the information accessed by the information accessing system. The information accessing system may use a web browser application to access information stored in web pages and the access monitoring application may monitor web pages accessed by the web browser application. The system terminates the monitoring of information access if the information accessing system stops accessing information.
