Data Leak Prevention log
Data Leak Prevention (DLP) provides additional information for administrators that can
better analyze and detect data leaks. You can enable logging of your configured settings
for Data Leak Prevention in a protection profile.
Before enabling logging of DLP events, verify that the correct DLP sensor is available for
what you want to log. A DLP sensor is required for both logging and DLP archiving of DLP
events. You cannot apply multiple DLP sensors for logging or DLP archiving of DLP
events.
