Strengthen your security posture to prevent accidental data misuse, loss, or theft by
enabling optical character recognition (OCR) for Enterprise Data Loss Prevention (E-DLP). Enabling
OCR allows the DLP cloud service to scan files with images containing sensitive
information that match your Enterprise DLP data profiles.
Enterprise DLP supports detection of sensitive data in images containing
alphanumeric English characters, including non-English languages written in
alphanumeric English characters. Enterprise DLP measures images using pixels
and achieves optimal performance when the image resolution is 50 x 50 - 1,800 x
1,800 pixels.
Enterprise DLP does not support OCR for Microsoft Visio XML drawing (.vdx)
files that need rendering to display. For example, OCR can't inspect a .vdx file
if the XML is the drawing representation.
