The
Exact Data Matching (EDM) CLI app version
3.5 now supports the creation of encrypted EDM data sets within an air-gapped
environment, which helps you protect sensitive data without an internet connection.
EDM is an advanced detection tool to monitor and protect sensitive data from
exfiltration of personally identifiable information such as social security numbers,
Medical Record Numbers, bank account numbers, and credit card numbers, in a
structured data source such as databases, directory servers, or structured data
files (CSV and TSV), with high accuracy. In some cases, the EDM CLI app might be
installed on a device that you intentionally prevent access to the internet;
otherwise referred to as air-gapped. Using the EDM CLI app version 3.5, an
air-gapped device that has the EDM CLI app installed can successfully create
encrypted EDM data sets. Data security administrators can then manually transfer the
output.zip that you need to upload to
Enterprise DLP to a device with an outbound internet connection, which can
upload the EDM data set to
Enterprise DLP.
