description An information management system implements a method for securing a media agent from unauthorized access, where the method includes configuring a secondary storage computing device to initialize a filter driver at boot time and monitor process calls to a media agent, where the media agent provides read and write operations to a secondary storage device in communication with the secondary storage computing device. The filter driver may detect a process call to the media agent, and determine whether the process call is authorized. In response to a determination that the process call is authorized, the filter driver may allow the process call to request an operation be performed by the media agent, and the media agent may then perform the requested operation. If the filter driver determines that the process call is not authorized, the filter driver may ignore the process call for the requested operation.
