Policy for preventing unauthorized photo capture
A computer-implemented method (CIM), according to one embodiment, includes enacting a first policy. Enacting the first policy includes collecting location data and camera data for a first user device. Enacting the first policy further includes causing a predetermined machine learning model to use the data to determine whether the first user device is authorized to perform an image capture at a current location of the first user device. In response to a determination that an output of the predetermined machine learning model indicates that the first user device is not authorized to perform the image capture at the current location, the first user device is restricted from performing the image capture. In response to a determination that the output of the predetermined machine learning model indicates that the first user device is authorized to perform the image capture, the first user device is allowed to perform the image capture.
