Which of the following is a valid location where Symantec DLP can scan and apply Information Centric Encryption actions?

• A. File store/SharePoint
• B. Local workstation
• C. Cloud email
• D. Mobile devices

Answer: (A)

Information Centric Encryption protects sensitive data by encrypting it where it’s stored, so the encryption travels with the data and remains effective at rest. In Symantec DLP, ICE actions are designed to be applied to data inside storage repositories, enabling encryption directly on the files as they reside in the store. File stores and SharePoint are classic examples of such repositories where DLP can scan for sensitive content and encrypt the files in place, ensuring protection without requiring changes to endpoints or during transmission. While DLP can monitor endpoints or cloud services for policy triggers, ICE encryption is principally implemented within central storage locations, making file store/SharePoint the appropriate targets for this action.
