Abstract
An apparatus, method, and computer program product for the improved identification of files subject to data loss prevention protocols in a network environment. Some example implementations provide for the generation and presentation of consolidated file sets in a user interface that allows a user to take direct action to operate on one or more files to enforce and/or otherwise comply with detected violations of data security protocols.
Claims20
A method for securing data files in a network environment, the method comprising:
- receiving, at a workflow system, a set of event data objects, wherein each event data object within the set of event data objects is associated with a first workstation;
- compiling a plurality of file information sets, wherein compiling the plurality of information sets comprises extracting, from each event data object within the set of event data objects, a file information set;
- based at least in part on the plurality of file information sets, generating a consolidated file set associated with the first workstation;
- causing a representation of the consolidated file set to be displayed on a user interface of the first workstation;
- receiving an indication of an action performed by a user of the first workstation on a file identified in the consolidated file set;
- and
- causing the generation of a record associated with the action performed by the user.
An apparatus for securing data files in a network environment, the apparatus comprising at least one processor and at least one memory comprising computer program code, the at least one memory and the computer program code configured to, with the at least one processor, cause the apparatus to:
- receive, a set of event data objects, wherein each event data object within the set of event data objects is associated with a first workstation;
- compile a plurality of file information sets, wherein compiling the plurality of information sets comprises extracting, from each event data object within the set of event data objects, a file information set;
- based at least in part on the plurality of file information sets, generate a consolidated file set associated with the first workstation;
- cause a representation of the consolidated file set to be displayed on a user interface of the first workstation;
- receive an indication of an action performed by a user of the first workstation on a file identified in the consolidated file set;
- and
- cause the generation of a record associated with the action performed by the user.
A computer program product comprising at least one non-transitory computer-readable storage medium having computer-executable program code instructions stored therein, the computer-executable program code instructions comprising program code instructions configured to:
- receive, a set of event data objects, wherein each event data object within the set of event data objects is associated with a first workstation;
- compile a plurality of file information sets, wherein compiling the plurality of information sets comprises extracting, from each event data object within the set of event data objects, a file information set;
- based at least in part on the plurality of file information sets, generate a consolidated file set associated with the first workstation;
- cause a representation of the consolidated file set to be displayed on a user interface of the first workstation;
- receive an indication of an action performed by a user of the first workstation on a file identified in the consolidated file set;
- and
- cause the generation of a record associated with the action performed by the user.
