Where must OCR components be installed?

• A. On the primary Enforce server.
• B. On one or more dedicated (non-detection) Windows servers.
• C. On the endpoint workstations.
• D. On Linux-based servers.

Answer: (B)

OCR is the process that extracts text from images so the DLP system can inspect image-based content. This work is CPU-intensive, so it’s best run on separate machines to keep detection performance fast and scalable. Installing OCR on dedicated Windows servers that are not used for detection provides the needed isolation and allows you to add more OCR servers as workload grows. Linux servers aren’t used for OCR in this setup, and putting OCR on the primary Enforce server or on endpoints would mix heavy processing with detection or user devices, which isn’t ideal.
