File System Permissions and DLP Authorized Users

A Data Loss Prevention (DLP) authorized user is a user account on a DLP-enabled laptop with permission to unlock and read the contents of locked files. If your laptop has more than one user account, the DLP authorized users of a locked file depend on the file system security permission settings of each user for that particular file.

The following table lists the DLP actions allowed on a locked file for each level of file system security permissions that a user account has on the file:
