Controlling files inside a directory via DLP Agent
Created: 02 Feb 2013 | 3 comments
Is It possible that I put all my confidential documents in a folder and let a user read files from that folder but prevent him from copying/pasting or moving out any file from that folder .

Hi Subhani,
This isn't available for our DLP agent.
The Prevent agent will;
Endpoint Discover can also scan for data at rest on the endpoint
An area you may want to examine is the use of Symantec Critical System Protection (SCSP) or Symantec Endpoint Prevent 12.1 (SEP), that have Host IPS functionality to de-escalate privileges around folders.
DLP Endpoint Prevent could then be used to stop copy from within a document if it contained data breaching a DLP policy.
Kind regards David
Subhani,
the agent does have a have a endpoint block, or a end point user justification. would this suffice?
let me know if this wonit work as there may be some other options to look at.
hi Subhani,
First u can assign read only rights to that folder in which u copied all confidentail documents. DLP can help u at endpoint and networks level protection to monitor and block the copy/pasting of your confidentail data.
Would you like to reply?
