Data Protection and SSL

JSWVLCM

Hi, I was wondering if anyone could tell me whether or not Data Protection works with SSL-encrypted traffic on the endpoints.  For example, will a properly configured Data Protection policy prevent designated sensitive information from being transmitted from an endpoint to an external source if the mechanism providing the transport is encrypted via SSL?  I had a customer recently ask about this and wasn't sure what to tell them.  I also searched through the associated guides and haven't found confirmation of this.

Any insight on this would be appreciated.

Thanks!

    Ok great that really helps answer this.  I really appreciate the quick response and helpful information.  I know that the DLP functionality built into SEC/Endpoint Protection doesn't include the capabilities of some of the expensive + full-blown DLP solutions out there and I always try to explain that to our customers.  For basic DLP it does a pretty good job and will address most customers needs expecially when combined with other features like application/device control and other existing perimeter protection equipment customers are using.

    Thanks again!  :smileyhappy:
