You can now use Enterprise Data Loss Prevention (E-DLP) Exact Data Matching (EDM) to detect and classify currency values across multiple formats, enhancing your organization's ability to prevent financial data exfiltration. This enables EDM to recognize monetary amounts in both US Dollar and Euro formats, including variations with currency symbols, decimal points, and comma separators such as $100,000.00, €50,000, or 100000. The support for currencies requires EDM CLI app version 5.0 or later release.

EDM currency detection addresses compliance requirements for organizations that handle sensitive financial data and need comprehensive data loss prevention coverage. Your data security administrators can use EDM to detect sensitive financial information including salary data, budget figures, transaction amounts, and other monetary values in documents and communications, whether it appears with or without currency symbols, decimal points for cents, or comma separators in larger amounts. Currency detection is valuable for global enterprises operating across multiple regions where different currency formats are common, ensuring consistent protection regardless of how your format financial data in your organization's documents.

EDM currency support integrates with your existing EDM configuration and follows the same data classification and policy enforcement mechanisms as other EDM data types. When you include supported currency values as a data type in your EDM data sets, Enterprise DLP automatically applies the appropriate matching algorithms during content inspection across email, web traffic, and file transfers. This capability is important for organizations subject to financial regulations or those handling customer payment information, as it helps prevent costly data breaches that could result in regulatory fines or competitive disadvantage. Currency detection works alongside existing EDM data types to provide comprehensive protection for structured financial data within your enterprise environment.
