New Features

This section summarizes the major new functionality added to CA DLP Network since version 12.0. For full details, see the CA DLP Network Implementation Guide.

The current CA DLP Network release includes the following enhancements:

Support for Bivio 7000 Appliances

CA DLP Network now runs on Bivio 7000 appliances. The hardware configuration for these appliances includes four pairs of data inspection ports. This lets you monitor traffic on up to four separate network segments using a single Bivio 7000 appliance.

Set up Filters in CA DLP Network Console

(Bivio 7000 appliances only)

You can now configure network filters and application filters in the CA DLP Network Console. You no longer need to edit nbapolicy.xml directly.

Use Direction to Filter SMTP Email Captures

You can set up application filters to capture outbound or inbound SMTP emails. That is, you can separately target emails sent from or to specific computers:

• Use the SMTPSRC protocol to identify emails sent from specific IP addresses.
• Use the SMTPDEST protocol to identify emails sent to specific IP addresses.

NNTP News Events Captured As Emails

CA DLP can capture and apply policy to messages posted to or read from newsgroups. CA DLP applies Outgoing Email policy triggers to these NNTP news events. 

Attachments are now correctly captured and displayed.

CPU Screen Shows Current Network Traffic Rates

The CPU screen in the CA DLP Network Console has been enhanced to include a MBits/sec column. This shows rates of network traffic passing through each Application Processor CPU on the Bivio appliance.
