Summary
This guide outlines the implementation of Data Loss Prevention (DLP) strategies using Skyhigh Security. It begins by emphasizing the importance of protecting sensitive data stored in the cloud from unauthorized access. The document details two primary steps for safeguarding data: classifying sensitive data and creating DLP policies. It explains that classification involves identifying and categorizing sensitive information, while DLP policies are designed to prevent the loss of such data through specific rules. The guide describes two types of DLP policies: Sanctioned Policy, which utilizes Skyhigh CASB for visibility and control over cloud data, and Shadow/Web Policy, which employs web proxy filtering to protect classified data. Additionally, it discusses the configuration of DLP policies using wizards for both policy types and manual setup options. The guide also highlights the potential responses to policy violations, such as blocking data transfer attempts and notifying administrators.
