The article examines the file system at the kernel level of the operating system. It addresses the primary issues related to personal data loss and protection and the general challenges of filtering content stored on users' computers.

The analysis reveals that increasing personal data is being lost or leaked from personal computers without users' knowledge. It also shows that many files stored on users' computers are potentially dangerous or unnecessary. The article emphasizes the development of an effective software solution to tackle the issue of filtering content on users' personal computers using a file system filter.

The article's objective is to outline the key aspects of the study and the steps involved in creating a software system that automatically removes unwanted content and protects important user data from being lost. Specifically, the system allows creating rules for filtering user data. Additionally, it enables system administrators to review processed system performance statistics for individual users. It displays information about both deleted files and files that have been backed up to a virtual encrypted disk.
