Abstract:
In an example method, one or more processors determine that a first data storage device has been communicatively coupled to a first computer system, determine that the first computer system is associated with a first geographical location, determine that the first data storage device is associated with a first user, determine that the first user is associated with one or more additional data storage devices, and determine usage data regarding the one or more additional data storage devices. Further, the one or more processors control a transmission of data between the first data storage device and first computer system based on the first geographical location and the usage data.
