Other System Settings

These are generally more technical in nature. The main groups are summarized as follows:

• Email Encryption Settings: You can set up outgoing email control actions to flag emails for encryption by a third-party encryption provider. These settings identify the encryption providers plus the 'flag for encryption' x-headers inserted into emails by CA DLP and recognized by these providers.
• Text extraction: Several settings control how CA DLP extracts text when analyzing the content of an email or document. For example, to avoid processing delays you can specify a maximum file size; CA DLP will not try to analyze files above this limit.
• Sender and recipient handling: Other settings control how CA DLP handles sender and recipient details in emails. For example, to alleviate delays when analyzing emails sent to very large distribution lists you can specify a maximum number of list members.
• Data Lookup timeouts: You can set timeouts to prevent complex triggers taking too long to activate. For example, if trigger needs to look up a user’s attributes in the CMS database, you can specify how long it waits for the CMS to reply.

  Note: Data Lookup commands are included in Email, Data At Rest and Data In Motion control triggers. They allow the trigger to test some aspect of the event. For example, they can look up an Outlook Address Book property of an email recipient. They can also be used to test a file’s metadata, such as its Creation and Last Modified dates.

• Sensitive information handling: These settings control the handling of passwords and credit card numbers captured by CA DLP. They enable you to conceal captured so they are not readable in the iConsole.
