About exclusions from a Kaspersky Lab category

To reduce the number of false positive incidents, you can configure exclusions from a Kaspersky Lab data category. Exclusions are regular expressions that control the way the DLP Module generates incidents.

Conditions of incident generation by the application:

• If the object being scanned has been found to contain only data described in exclusions, the application does not generate an incident.
• If the object being scanned has been found to contain only data described in exclusions as well as data not described in exclusions, the application does generates an incident. In this case the application considers only those data that do not match the list of exclusions.

Data categories available for the DLP Module are used to scan objects for leaks of scanned documents, such as the Personal identification (Russia) category. The DLP Module does not take into account the existing exclusions when scanning objects that contain document images, but does take into account the exclusions when scanning objects that contain textual information.
