Abstract
A file system security driver and vault method and system particularly applicable to a system in which protected data is segregated from other data, which allows for back-channeling of file data in order to ensure that files created by applications using secured data do not cause data leaks of secure data. In a preferred embodiment, a file system security driver is a driver resident on the kernel level which monitors file system requests and allows limited access to files resident on the vault and creation of files within the vault when necessary.
