Encrypt - If you select the Encrypt check box for a non-default rule in the Categories
list, the system encrypts the files. In addition, Reports
can list which files were
encrypted based on content rules. If you select Encrypt and the system sweeps an
endpoint and encrypts, the files remain encrypted.
Audit - By default when the Content Based Protection policy is enabled, the Audit
action applies to all files. You can view these in Audit Events and Reports
. The report
displays the first 2000 audit events. Before deploying, you can configure the rules
without selecting the Encrypt option and then generate an audit report to determine the
impact on endpoints and then further modify the rules.
Rules - For configured rules, the system will sweep and detect them when a user saves the file.
If the Encrypt check box is selected, the system encrypts the files.
Elements - Options for configuring a rule, such as Credit Card number, US Name, Social
Security Number, or Tags.
Content-Based Rule Name and Priority
To modify:
1. See Configuration_overview
.
2. Select a non-default rule name in the Categories list, and click the Edit icon.
3. Optionally, modify the rule name.
4. Modify the priority:
The Priority label lists the range of numbers based on your number of rules in the
Categories list.
The largest number is the highest priority.
By default, Public is set to 1, the lowest priority. Whichever rule is set to priority 1 is
listed with the (default) label and has no Encrypt option and no rules to modify. If you
configure rules for a name with a higher priority but then change the priority to 1, those
rules are ignored.
5. To remove a rule name, select one and click the Delete icon (X). The range of priorities will
also decrease.
Important: The policy requires a minimum number of rule names in the Categories lists.
For files to be encrypted, this policy requires a minimum of two rule names and one
Encrypt check box selected.
For the policy to function and create audit events, this policy requires a minimum of one
rule name in the Categories list.
