Avanan now supports a new workflow options in the Office 365 Email DLP policy, allowing the users to review and approve sending sensitive information encrypted.

The new workflow options include:

  • Email is blocked and user can request to resend as encrypted

  • Email is blocked and user can request to resend as encrypted (Admin must approve)

The new options work as follows:

  1. User sends an email.

  2. Avanan SmartDLP engine detects some potential leak and stops the email (quarantine).

  3. The user receives a notification email - informing of the blocked emails and asking the users for approval to send the email encrypted (including approval link).

  4. When user decides to proceed - clicks on the approval link. Avanan releases the email and encrypts it (using Microsoft Encryption).
