Privacy Level Indicating Data Leakage Prevention System

As private information can be contained in the DLP (Data Leakage Prevention) system’s target of monitoring, the monitoring process inevitably violates privacy of the internal employees. Currently, existing DLP systems do not consider the privacy violation during the monitoring process. In this work, we are proposing a DLP system considering privacy violation level. The privacy violation level of our system has static and dynamic characteristics. The static privacy level just indicates the monitoring target’s portion of private data. The dynamic privacy level indicates the portion of private data which are disclosed by DLP system. The privacy level of our proposing DLP system can be used to control the private violation by removing specific monitoring targets in DLP system. The contribution of this work is defining the privacy level in DLP system and implementing the proposed idea.
