Exact Data Matching Column Context for Enterprise DLP Incidents

Enhance visibility into Exact Data Matching (EDM) by displaying the specific columns when Enterprise Data Loss Prevention (E-DLP) detects sensitive data in a DLP incident.
When investigating sensitive data incidents, understanding exactly where and why a match occurred is critical for effective remediation. The Exact Data Match (EDM) Column Context feature solves this challenge by displaying the specific column names from the uploaded EDM data set alongside matched data snippets when reviewing an Enterprise Data Loss Prevention (E-DLP) incident. This enhanced visibility eliminates the guesswork in determining whether a match on data like 123-45-6789 occurred in a Social Security Number, Loan Application Number, or Patient ID column to provide immediate context for your incident analysis. Data security administrators can now quickly validate the accuracy of matches without contacting support, as the system clearly indicates which column triggered each detection. This transparency is particularly valuable for compliance officers who require detailed audit trails showing precisely what data caused a match, streamlining regulatory reporting. EDM Column Context also helps new data security administrators understand EDM functionality faster by making the connection between matched content and data structure explicit. By presenting column information alongside existing match details in the DLP incident, data security administrators gain greater confidence in your data protection strategy while reducing the time spent interpreting detection results.
