Add External Services for EDLP

You can configure Secure Cloud Access to work with external services to manage user data, gather information about unsanctioned cloud applications, enable Single Sign-on, set up key servers for hybrid key management, and other functions.

Many organizations have made a significant investment in an Enterprise Data Loss (EDLP) solution. This investment not only counts the capital expenditure on the software and support but also the person-hours and intellectual capital to craft policies that meet the organization's needs. By adding Secure Cloud Access to an organization, you can extend the access boundary from the endpoint, where traditional enterprise DLP lives, to the cloud and SaaS.

When Secure Cloud Access is integrated with an EDLP solution, policies can be configured to do the initial check on the DLP, and then pass the file/data to the EDLP. Or it can pass everything to the EDLP or a combination of the two.

After the file/data inspection is complete, the policy action is taken. Examples of policy actions include:

  • Encryption
  • Deny upload
  • Watermarking
  • Quarantine
  • Allow and log
  • User remediation
  • Replace file with a marker file
