DLP Policies

This feature allows users of Forcepoint DSPM to enable or disable DLP policy groups that apply on specific scan settings. Users can view all the DLP policies for Unstructured and Structured data under the Administration > DLP Policies page. By default, all the policies are enabled. You can enable/disable the policies selectively using the toggle button next to each listed policy.

This feature is available as a preview only.

You can use the tabs Unstructured/Structured to view the policy groups for the unstructured data or the structured data.

An example is shown below:

You can expand each policy group to see DLP Rules Names list which would be matched. If there is a hit then this rule will be displayed on the result column values of the Enterprise search page.

Once you have selected a specific DLP policy group(s) that you want to apply, you can next run a scan on the selected data source. If there is a policy hit, then it will display on the rule in the column DLP Rules Name on the Enterprise Search page.

Also, following points are worth noting:

• Only enabled policies will be applied to the extracted content during the scans.
• If you have run a scan with a certain DLP policy group enabled, and now you want to run the scan again with the same policy group disabled, before you start the scan again, allow some time for the caches to clean.
• If all policies are disabled, there will be no DLP classifier hits.
