Email DLP Enhancements
Email DLP now supports encrypting emails sent from a Gmail, nested email attachment
inspection, and notifying email senders when their email gets blocked.
Enterprise Data Loss Prevention (E-DLP) introduced the following enhancements to
Email DLP to strengthen your security
posture when inspecting outbound emails from your organization and prevent
exfiltration of sensitive data.
You can now forward outbound Gmail and Microsoft Exchange emails to your
Proofpoint server and to encrypt them on their way to the target recipient
whenever Enterprise DLP detects sensitive data. Encrypting outbound
emails containing sensitive data prevents unauthorized individuals from
reading these email messages.
Email DLP now supports inspection of .eml files
and up to five levels of nested .eml email
files. However, Enterprise DLP can only detect nested
.eml files,—Enterprise DLP can't
detect and inspect nested files in any other supported file types.
(Microsoft Exchange only) You can now configure Enterprise DLP
to send an email notification to the sender of the outbound that matches the
Email DLP policy rule. This enables Enterprise DLP to detect sensitive
data immediately and notify email senders who their email wasn't sent out to
the intended recipient due to a data security violation. As a result, the
email sender knows about the block and can modify their email appropriately
and attempt to resend it.
You can use the automated email notification feature only for Email DLP
policy rules where the response Action is
Forward email for approval to end user's manager
Forward email for approval to admin, or
Quarantine.
