Embodiments of the present disclosure provide methods and systems that configured to, generally, and in no particular order, perform one or more of the following functions: distinguish and identify secured assets that are permitted to an end-point to employ within a shared computing environment; monitor the end-point for certain triggering events, such as data creation, reception, manipulation, storage, or extraction associated with a secured asset; upon detection of a triggering event, monitor at least one unsecured container in order to determine if at least a portion of the secured asset has been otherwise transferred to an unsecured container; and encrypt the unsecured container in order to secure the otherwise unsecured asset.
