Abstract
The invention provides a method, apparatus and system for preventing exfiltration of data caused by use of an unsanctioned CCS account. The invention intercepts a communication including a request for access to data, where the communication is being transmitted between a user of the CCS, and a CCS host website, referred to as a CCS endpoint. The intercepted communication is inspected for information that is processed to obtain a CCS account identifier associated with a CCS account being used by a user of that CCS account. The CCS account identifier is further processed to access tenant defined policy information associated with the CCS account. The invention further performs actions to determine if the CCS account associated with the account identifier is unsanctioned (unpermitted) with respect to access to the particular data for which access is being requested by the user of that CCS account.
