Abstract
A method for providing data security in a device driver for accessing data. The device driver detects a file system request, completes the file system request, and receives return information from the file system request. The device driver further determines whether the file system request is for a tag file associated with a secured file; and if so, modifies the return information to reflect a file attribute of the secured file.
