The Content Registration feature in CA DataMinder, also known as fingerprinting, enables you to take 'fingerprints' of sensitive documents that you want to protect. In effect, you can register the content of these documents so that they can be quickly recognized if a user tries to copy or send them or when CA DataMinder runs a file scan. CA DataMinder can then apply appropriate policy controls.
Fingerprinting is simple to roll out and does not require complex changes to your user policies. Instead of defining complex document classifications in the user policy, you can register the content of the files you want to protect.
Fingerprinting is also the best way to protect documents with highly specialized text content, such as source code, and files with little text content. For example, you can fingerprint CAD drawings, graphics saved in a spreadsheet, and multimedia files.
These fingerprints represent unique document signatures and are made available to CA DataMinder policy engines and endpoint agents. When CA DataMinder analyzes a file, it can quickly determine whether the file matches a known fingerprint and apply policy controls to that file. For example, it can block a fingerprinted document from being sent as an email attachment or copied to a USB device. It can even detect if a document or email contains extracts of text copied from a protected file.
