Gain incident visibility — DLP Manager allows you to view all incidents generated by McAfee DLP anywhere in your network.

Quickly create reports — With DLP Manager, you can quickly generate reports that cover one, multiple, or all McAfee DLP components, and combine incidents and cases as needed to fit your workflow.

Perform sensitive data searches — DLP Manager allows you to perform searches against all McAfee DLP components to find sensitive data, learn how it is used, fine-tune rules, and validate policies on the fly.

Get started quickly — You can deploy preconfigured policies for common regulations such as HIPAA and PCI.

Expedite setup with built-in roles — DLP Manager’s built-in roles expedite setup for key team members. You can add custom administration roles, allowing any user to configure, manage, monitor, and respond to any data or incident within their control.

Features & Benefits

Save time and money with central management

Configure, manage, and monitor all DLP components with the familiar McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator (ePO) platform, and create comprehensive dashboards and reports from one central console.

Control incident views based on role

Determine who views specific incidents, from general risk reporting to detailed incident information. Protect sensitive information with data changes right in the management user interface.

Streamline remediation

Configure, manage, check status, and view all alerts from a single console. Quickly hand off cases and incidents between authorized administrators.

Improve case management

Consolidate and address group-related incidents that require remediation. Easily track multiple incidents and cases, and escalate incidents to different users. Access a detailed case history, export cases for offline viewing, and send email notifications to case owners if a change is made.

Simplify incident reporting

Access a centralized view of all incidents that were generated by any McAfee DLP component. Generate reports that cover one, multiple, or all McAfee DLP components. Automate reporting with prepackaged, configurable reports that you can schedule for automatic email delivery in multiple formats.

Use advanced data control

Search, mine, and analyze data. Find sensitive data, learn how it is used, fine-tune rules quickly, and validate rules on the fly.

Perform comprehensive data filtering

Quickly filter information to get to specific data of interest. Automatically create filters by selecting data values, and easily add, remove, and compound filters.

Manage from a single interface

Configure and manage any McAfee DLP component from a single interface, the McAfee ePO platform, and easily check the status of CPU utilization, disk utilization, and network throughput. View remediation alarms and alerts generated by any managed McAfee DLP component.

Streamline policy and rule distribution

Distribute polices and rules for all, or specific, data loss vectors. Configure and distribute action rules, including email notification, encryption, quarantining, redirection, bouncing, and blocking.

Improve incident workflow management

Correlate incidents into a customizable dashboard. Escalate incidents through a flexible embedded case management tool and delegate responsibility for a specific incident and/or case among key users. Rules affected by workflow changes are easily updated.

Accelerate setup through preconfigured roles

Expedite setup using preconfigured roles for key members of teams within the organization, including administrators, legal, human resources, compliance, operations, and information security. Assign permissions to a role with high granularity and define additional roles with a few mouse clicks. Integrate with LDAP or Microsoft Active Directory for centralized authentication services.
