Abstract

Methods and systems are provided for enhanced data loss prevention. Data loss prevention may be applied to data that includes a plurality of records and a plurality of categories, with each record including a plurality of fields and each field corresponding to a different one of the categories. Applying of data loss prevention may include selecting a subset of records from the plurality of records; scanning fields of the selected subset of records for sensitive information; computing based on a result of the scanning, for each category, a likelihood the category contains the sensitive information; selecting a subset of categories based on the computed likelihoods of the categories to contain the sensitive information; searching the sensitive information in the selected subset of categories; and in response to detection of sensitive information in at least one of the subset of records, taking one or more data loss prevention related actions.
