Patent attributes
The technology disclosed includes a system to efficiently classify sensitivity of document generated by and downloaded from cloud-based provider services. The system monitor's a user's network traffic at an endpoint that initiates generation of the document and receives a web page identifying the document generated. The system parses the user's network traffic that selects the document for download and intercepts a critical metadata in an API parameter string used to download the document. The system interprets the critical metadata to analyze sensitivity of the document to assign a sensitive classification to the document. Data exfiltration prevention measures are triggered upon detection of attempted exfiltration of the document based on the sensitivity classification.
