  2. In "ICAP Services" tab create new ICAP service with the name 'symc_dlp'. Note that selecting another name may result in conflicts and the ICAP service failing.
  3. Once the service name is created, edit that and make these 3 modifications:
    1. Next to "Service URL" enter icap protocol followed by an ip address (it might be a dummy ip address, as WSS will overwrite this once policy is pushed from Management Center), so the sample entry might be:
      icap://<icap_ip address>
    2. Next to "Service type" change the option to "DLP"
    3. In "ICAP v1.0 Options" section change to "request modification" as the supported method
  4. After hitting ok, ensure to Apply the changes

    5. In the "Action" column select "Set" and then "Add a new object". Select "Perform Request Analysis"


    6. From "Available services" move the ICAP service created on Edge SWG to the right window and click OK

    7. Right click on the "Appliance" in Enforcement column and select "WSS" (if policy should apply only for Cloud SWG) or "Universal" (if policy should apply on Cloud SWG and Edge SWG)

    8. Save the policy
