Hi Community,
Sophos is currently investigating customer reports of SENSITIVE-DATA IPS alerts after the latest IPS pattern update.
Traffic containing sensitive data being sent over plain text SMTP, HTTP, FTP-Data, IMAP, or POP3 may be incorrectly blocked by Intrusion Prevention.
The following reasons can be seen:
- SENSITIVE-DATA Credit Card Numbers
- SENSITIVE-DATA U.S. Social Security Numbers (with dashes)
- SENSITIVE-DATA U.S. Social Security Numbers (w/out dashes)
- SENSITIVE-DATA U.S. Phone Numbers
- SENSITIVE-DATA Email Addresses
This article has been published to provide more information and the available workarounds.
