Policy-Based Image Management
First Claim
1. A method for managing an image comprising:
- determining whether an object is present in a subset of a plurality of images using an identification of the object;
responsive to a determination that the object is present in the subset of the plurality of images using a policy for a user associated with the object, determining whether the object is permitted to be present in the subset of the plurality of images using the policy for the user associated with the object; and
responsive to an absence of a determination that the object is permitted to be present in the subset of the plurality of images using the policy, performing a removal action of the object on the subset of the plurality of images.

Abstract
The different illustrative embodiments provide a method, computer program product, and apparatus for managing an image. A determination is made whether an object is present in a subset of a plurality of images using an identification of the object. A determination is made whether the object is permitted to be present in the subset of the plurality of images using the policy for the user associated with the object responsive to a determination that the object is present in the subset of the plurality of images using a policy for a user associated with the object. A removal action of the object is performed on the subset of the plurality of images responsive to an absence of a determination that the object is permitted to be present in the subset of the plurality of images using the policy.

17. A computer program product for managing an image, the computer program product comprising:
-
a computer recordable storage medium; program instructions, stored on the computer recordable storage medium, for determining whether an object is present in a subset of a plurality of images using an identification of the object; program instructions, stored on the computer recordable storage medium, for determining whether the object is permitted to be present in the subset of the plurality of images using a policy for a user associated with the object responsive to a determination that the object is present in the subset of the plurality of images using the policy for the user associated with the object; and program instructions, stored on the computer recordable storage medium, for performing a removal action of the object on the subset of the plurality of images responsive to an absence of a determination that the object is permitted to be present in the subset of the plurality of images using the policy. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19)

20. An apparatus comprising:
-
a bus system; a storage device connected to the bus system, wherein the storage device includes program code; and a processor unit connected to the bus system, wherein the processor unit processes the program code to determine whether an object is present in a subset of a plurality of images using an identification of the object;
determine whether the object is permitted to be present in the subset of the plurality of images using a policy for a user associated with the object responsive to a determination that the object is present in the subset of the plurality of images using the policy for the user associated with the object; and
perform a removal action of the object on the subset of the plurality of images responsive to an absence of a determination that the object is permitted to be present in the subset of the plurality of images using the policy.
