SharePoint Protect files on download loophole?

Iron Contributor

I've created a CAS policy to "Control file download (with DLP)" on for Guest users. I have the policy set to apply a protective Sensitivity Label and to "Block download of any file that is unsupported..."  

 

This works fine when trying to download individual files from SharePoint. However if I select multiple files, SharePoint zips them all up and downloads the zip file with no protection on the zip or the files within the zip.

 

Is this a bug, or am I missing something?  For now I've created another policy that blocks all zip files from SharePoint as a workaround.

We're aware of this and are looking into it. 

 

Thank you for your feedback. 

@Banu Jafarli are there any updates on closing this loophole?
