Data control messages showing .pst as file for outlook file attachements

Yugandhar

Hi,

We are using Sophos Data control and configured to allow and log the activity of sending the data through mail clients i.e. MS outlook.

Here the problem is data control evetns are showing with the PST file name for all the attachments through outlook and the source location is showing the PST file location instead of original file attachment location.

Is this the limitation of Sophos Data control. if it is the limitation o the expected behaviour then Sophos Endpoint Data contorl is not a perfect suite for Data protection.

Are there anyone identified this issue/resolve this?

Regards,

Yugandhar

    Hi Christian,

    Thank you for the Information!

    Now I understood the concept that if the attachment is taken from local PST file then it will show the source location as PST file location. Correct me if I am wrong. Also, i have seen the logs showing the exact file location while sending through Outlook.

    Also, i understood that Sophos has limitation on detecting the attachments of forwarded mails and "Send as attachment" option in MS office. Am i right?

    Are there any solutions in Sophos to retrive the copy of the attachement which was detected by Sophos Data Control.

    Earlier i worked on SafeGuard Port Protector where it will have copy the uploaded file in shared path for future review. Please help me on the solution.

    Regards,
