Configuring data loss prevention

Configuring data loss prevention

The FortiMail data leak prevention (DLP) system allows you to prevent sensitive data from leaving your network. After you define sensitive data patterns, you can take actions against the email containing data matching these patterns. You configure the DLP system by creating individual rules based on document fingerprint, file filters or sensitive information in a DLP profile and assign the profile to a policy.

This section describes how to configure the DLP settings.
