    Hi Sevak,

    Let's take one Example for your question.

     

    1. Create a policy wich blocks confidential word from leaving an organization.

    2. Your Word Document contains a confidential word.

    3. Open your browser (Firefox) => open docs.google.com (Where we can drag the confidential data )

    4. try to drag and drop Confidential data from word doc to google doc.( DLP will definitely block it ) 

     

    Or You may haven't configured the policy correctly.

     

    Regards,

    Okay, I tried same at my TestLab.

     

    Yes the data get copied in Pastebin.com but here is the catch

     

    As soon as you click Paste it ( Upload Button ) 

    It Will block the Connection.

    See below Screenshot.

    Thank you, for answer

    problem is this, that we can drag text in sites. its mean, that drag channel not monitored.

    if you drag confidential text to cryptobin.co  you can upload it,without any problem. its will encript your confidential text on browser. and like this site there is milion.

    problem is- MONITOR CHANNEL DRAG.

    If you have other idea abaut this, please let me know. becouse its very problem.

     

    Thank you for answer

    Hi Sevak, in simple and in single line. yes it can block drag and drop content as long as the content is defined to block in your policy.

    its not block  drag and drop text. please test to drag confidential text and drop anywere. Dlp only can block after upload. it is problem, becouse you can drag confidential text in crybtonin.co and send anywhere. like cryptobin. co site there is thousands.

    if you have other idea abaut this let me know please.

    Hello Sevak,

     

    I believe the easier solution here is to block via proxy the access to these types of websites (companies like Blue Coat offer services which contains updated lists of urls based on a category -  actually this company is being acquired by Symantec).

    Hello dear

    thank you for answer.

    its mean, that we can only block addreses like this, and we dont have any way to  control channel drag and drop?
