I am notoriously bad at picking up on sarcasm over email, especially lacking the appropriate <sarcasm> tag, but are you seriously suggesting tailoring the testing to only highlight the features that you know work? I can understand wanting to demonstrate what would get caught, but the real value of testing this system is to find out where the weakness exist so that appropriate controls can be added to reduce those risks. The testing methodology should be expansive enough to use as education for the idiots. On Oct 22, 2009 2:14pm, Chris Merkel <cmerkel at gmail.com> wrote:
I agree with Ron - DLP is an "idiot screen" and is useful for little
more. Therefore, your testing methodology should be to emulate idiots
and nothing more. (and educate any idiot who thinks it will solve your
leakage issues.)

Our security department is testing out Symantec's Vontu and I amplaying
the guinea pig and have to try and get documents out of our company's
environment. I have a really basic understanding of how it works. Ithas a
span port sitting and listening to all outgoing web traffic and thereis
also an agent that sits on desktops and watches to see if any sensitive
information leaves via USB drive or e-mail.
Does anyone have any whitepapers or info regarding how it actuallyworks
or
any tactics I should try?
