REQUESTS: post any requests for new Content Control Lists or additional file type support here

Johnstringer

Please use this thread to post any requests for new Content Control Lists or additional file type support here.

If you prefer to keep your request private then please place the request via Sophos support and we'll follow up.

The types of requests we've received in the past include:

  1. Additional country support for PII (personally identifiable information) and confidential document markers.
  2. Support for industry specific regulations, for example PCI DSS (payment card industry) and HIPAA (US health care).
  3. Support for national or industry specific identifiers.
  4. Support for additional file formats e.g. CAD; encrypted formats; industry specific image formats

When you place a request with Sophos product management and SophosLabs please provide as much information as possible to help in the creation of the Content Control List. For example, often identifiers will use a inbuilt checksum (commonly Mod 10 or Mod 11 based) or will be displayed alongside what we refer to "qualifying terms". An example of a qualifying term might be "DOB" next to a date of birth format or "MRN" next to a medical record number.

For filetype requests please provide a selection of samples so the labs can use these for analysis.

    Hi Jak,

    I like the CV / Resume idea - although I'd have some concerns about the HR implications surrounding the implementation of such a rule! CV's may contain what is classified as sensitive personal data under the DPA and there are stricter regulations around how such data can be used / monitored. 

    Password files are interesting but I wonder how useful the DLP solution would be for finding such data. Someone canny enough to find such files in a form they could be cracked could probably also work out a way to get around the content monitoring solution.

    I'll add both to our request list and see what additional requests we gets along a similar line.

    Regards,

    John
