Data loss prevention (DLP) on outgoing mails with attachments

Copper Contributor

I'd like to check the attachments of outgoing mails from a certain mailbox.

  • Check whether the name of the attachment contains the contractnumber specified in the subject
  • Check whether the contents of the attachments contain the contractnumber specified in the subject
  • Check if the emailadres the mail is send to is linked to the contractnumber specified, by calling an API to our CRM application

If one of these rules fail, the outgoing mail must be blocked or forwarded to a supervisor.

 

We are now on Exchange 2013, but will be moving to Exchange Online probably this year.

 

Thanks in advance for your ideas on this.
