Enable data security features

Use the Data Security tab to monitor and prevent the loss of sensitive data and intellectual property via the web. You can protect intellectual property, data that is protected by national legislation or industry regulation, and data suspected to be stolen by malware or malicious activities.

The service has a default set of content classifiers that can identify data types that are important for regulatory compliance, and you can create custom content classifiers that are used to identify intellectual property and other protected data types important for your organization. Once defined, these classifiers can be used to identify and filter traffic that may constitute attempted data theft. This traffic can be blocked, or monitored for reporting purposes. Configure content classifiers via Web > Content Classifiers. Configure data security settings in your policies using the Data Security tab.
