Abstract
A data loss prevention (DLP) agent manages DLP polices of a shared network file system. The DLP agent identifies a request by an application to access a file from a shared storage device over a network, and enables monitoring on a local data store to detect file system requests by the application in response to the identifying. The DLP agent also analyzes data associated with the file to determine if the data violates a data loss prevention (DLP) policy, and enforces a response rule associated with the file if the data associated with the file violates the DLP policy.
