Issue/Introduction

You are trying to configure the policy using a Regex data identifier to look at filenames as well as file contents.

Is it possible to create incidents based on file names and not only contents of files if they contain sensitive data? 

Example:

SSN ###-##-####.png

 

Environment

Release : 15.8

Resolution

Data Loss Prevention is not designed to detect based on filenames, we examine content within files.
