Using data loss prevention policies

Critical

Data Loss Prevention (DLP) policies can be used to protect sensitive data from accidental or intentional disclosure. Policies can alert, for example, when they detect sensitive data (such as personal identification numbers or credit card numbers) in email or another data system to which they would not belong.

The organization defines DLP policies related to endpoints in a risk-based manner, taking into account the data classification of the processed data.

Use of a DLP-system

Critical

The DLP system aims to prevent the loss or leakage of sensitive data. The system can be used to prevent unwanted actions by monitoring, detecting and preventing the processing of sensitive data without meeting the desired conditions. Blocking can be done during use (in-use, terminal operations), in motion (in-transit, network traffic) or in storage locations (at-rest).
