COMPUTING SYSTEM PROVIDING METADATA MODIFICATION POLICY ENFORCEMENT AND RELATED METHODS

Abstract:

A computing device may include a memory and a processor cooperating with the memory to enroll with a server having a metadata anonymization policy associated therewith, generate metadata and combine the metadata with respective user content data, where the computing device has a given metadata permission policy associated therewith from among a plurality of different metadata permission policies. The processor may further determine user content data having metadata combined therewith in violation of the metadata anonymization policy, and when the given metadata permission policy permits modification of metadata, modify the metadata in violation of the metadata anonymization policy so that only the modified metadata is accessible when the user content data is accessed.
