An
Enterprise Data Loss Prevention (E-DLP)
Incident is generated when traffic matches your
Enterprise DLP
data profiles for
Prisma Access (Managed by Strata Cloud Manager)
and
SaaS Security
on
Strata Cloud Manager
. You can then filter and view the DLP Incident for the detected traffic, such as matched data patterns, the source and destination of the traffic, the file and file type. Additionally, the DLP Incident displays the specific data pattern that the traffic matched and also displays the total number of unique and total occurrences of those data pattern matches.
You can then view this sensitive content called a
snippet
. A snippet is evidence or identifiable information associated with a pattern match. For example, if you specified a data pattern of Credit Card Number, the managed firewall returns the credit card number of the user as the snippet that was matched. By default, the managed firewall returns snippets.
Strata Cloud Manager
uses
data masking
to mask the data in the snippets. By default, the DLP Incident displays the last four digits of the value in cleartext (partial masking). For example, a DLP Incident displays a snippet of a credit card number as
XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-1234
. You can also specify the data to be completely displayed in cleartext or to fully mask the data and hide all values.
Snippets are available for regular expression (regex)-based patterns only.

  1. Log in to
    Strata Cloud Manager
    .
  2. Select
    Manage
    Configuration
    Data Loss Prevention
    DLP Incidents
    .
  3. Select a
    Scan Date
    and
    Region
    to filter the DLP Incidents.
    Enterprise DLP
    Incidents are generated in the
    Region
    where the Public Cloud Server is located.
    For
    Prisma Access (Managed by Strata Cloud Manager)
    and
    SaaS Security
    ,
    Enterprise DLP
    automatically resolves to the closest Public Cloud Server to where the inspected traffic originated.
    When a new Public Cloud Server is introduced,
    Enterprise DLP
    begins to automatically resolve to it if it’s closer to where the inspected traffic originated.
    This might mean that new DLP Incidents generated after the release of a new Public Cloud Server are generated in a different
    Region
    .
  4. Review the DLP Incidents summary information to help focus your incident investigation.
    These lists are updated hourly.
    • Top Data Profiles to Investigate—
      Lists up to seven data profiles with the highest number of incidents in descending order.
    • Top Sources to Investigate—
      Lists up to seven source IP addresses and Fully Qualified Domain Names (FQDN) with the highest number of incidents in descending order.
    • Sensitive Files by Action—
      Lists the number of incidents based on the Action taken by
      Enterprise DLP
      in descending order.
  5. Review the Incidents and click a
    File
    name to review a specific incident.
    You can
    Add New Filter
    to filter the DLP incidents by
    Action
    ,
    Channel
    ,
    Data Profile
    or
    Response Status
    to search for a specific incident you want to review.
  6. Review the Incident Details to review specific file upload details.

        when the incident occurred.
      • Scan Date
        —Date and time the matched traffic was scanned and the DLP incident was generated.
    • User
      User data requires integration with Cloud Identity Engine (CIE) to display. The User data displayed correspond to Palo Alto Networks Attributes that correlate to specific directory provider fields in CIE.
      • User ID
        —ID of the user that generated the DLP incident.
        The User ID field does not require CIE integration. However, the corresponding Palo Alto Networks Attribute is

    • Annotations
      The Annotations sections allows you to add notes and details regarding the DLP incident.
      Save
      any annotations regarding the DLP incident so other administrators can view.
  7. Review the Matches within Data Profiles to review snippets of matching traffic and the data patterns that matched the traffic to better understand what data was detected.
    For nested data profiles, the data profile displayed is the specific nested data profile that matched the scanned traffic. For example, you create a
    DataProfile
    , with the nested profiles
    Profile1
    ,
    Profile2
    , and
    Profile3
    and scanned traffic matches the nested
    Profile2
    and is blocked. In this scenario, the data profile displayed for the incident is
    Profile2
    .
  8. Review the file log to learn about the traffic data for the DLP incident.
    1. Select
      Incidents & Alerts
      Log Viewer
      .
    2. From the Firewall drop-down, select
      File
      .
    3. Filter to view the file log for the DLP incident using the Report ID.
      Report ID = <report-id>

DLP App

View the log details for traffic that matches your
Enterprise Data Loss Prevention (E-DLP)
data profiles on the DLP app on the hub.
  1. Log in to the DLP app on the hub.
    If you don’t already have access to the DLP app on the hub, see the hub Getting Started Guide. Only Superusers can access the hub.
  2. View the DLP
    Incidents
    .
  3. Select a
    Scan Date
    and
    Region
    to filter the DLP Incidents.
    Enterprise DLP
    Incidents are generated in the
    Region
    where the Public Cloud Server is located.
    For
    Panorama
    and
    Prisma Access (Managed by Panorama)
    , the region is determined by the currently configured Public Cloud Server. By default, the
    Enterprise DLP
    plugin is configured to resolve to the closest Public Cloud Server to where the inspected traffic originated but you can configure a static Public Cloud Server.
    For
    Strata Cloud Manager
    ,
    Enterprise DLP
    automatically resolves to the closest Public Cloud Server to where the inspected traffic originated.
    When a new Public Cloud Server is introduced,
    Enterprise DLP
    begins to automatically resolve to it if it’s closer to where the inspected traffic originated. For
    Panorama
    and
    Prisma Access (Managed by Panorama)
    , this happens only if you keep the default Public Cloud Server FQDN. For
    Strata Cloud Manager
    , this happens by default.
    This might mean that new DLP Incidents generated after the release of a new Public Cloud Server are generated in a different
    Region
    .
  4. Review the DLP Incidents summary information to help focus your incident investigation.
    These lists are updated hourly.
    • Top Data Profiles to Investigate—

    • Sensitive Files by Action—
      Lists the number of incidents based on the Action taken in descending order.
  5. Review the Incidents and click a
    File
    name to review a specific incident.
    You can filter the DLP incidents by
    File Name
    or
    Report ID
    to search for a specific incident you want to review.
  6. Review the Incident Details to review specific file upload details.
    Make note of the
    Report ID
    for the DLP incident if you haven’t already done so. The Report ID is used to view additional Traffic log details regarding the DLP incident.
  7. Review the
    Matches within Data Profiles
    to review snippets of matching traffic and the data patterns that matched the traffic to better understand what data was detected.
    For nested data profiles, the data profile displayed is the specific nested data profile that matched the scanned traffic. For example, you create a
    DataProfile
    , with the nested profiles
    Profile1
    ,
    Profile2
    , and
    Profile3
    and scanned traffic matches the nested
    Profile2
    and is blocked. In this scenario, the data profile displayed for the incident is
    Profile2
    .
    • In the snippet,
      Enterprise DLP
      only masks traffic that matches the data pattern match criteria. Other sensitive data captured in the snippet are not masked if they do not match the data pattern where the snippet is displayed.
    • Data pattern match criteria configured to inspect for
      Any
      occurrence of matched traffic display up to 3
      High
      and 3
      Low
      confidence level matches if detected.
    • Data pattern match criteria configured to inspect for
      High
      confidence level matches display up to 3
      Low
      confidence level matches if detected.
    • Data pattern match criteria configured to inspect for
      Low
