Disclosed are various embodiments for controlling distribution of data on a network. In one embodiment, a distribution service receives a request from a user on a client device to access the distribution service.

The distribution service identifies which of the resources are accessible to the user and the client device pairing based on a plurality of resource grouping identifiers. The distribution service then determines whether the client device complies with a plurality of distribution rules associated with the identified resources. Upon determining that the client device is compliant, the distribution service transmits the resources related to the compliance.
