Encoding Schemas

Encoding schemas supported by Enterprise Data Loss Prevention (E-DLP).
Enterprise DLP supports the following encoding schemas for supported file types.
Detection of encoding schemas for any DLP service relies on heuristically guessing the character encoding of a series of bytes that represent text. As a result, encoding schema detection is recognized as being inherently unreliable. This means that Enterprise DLP may not be able to always detect encoded files. Palo Alto Networks is continuously working on and improving Enterprise DLP's ability to detect encoded file types to prevent exfiltration of sensitive data.
