Does anyone has any success at setting up DLP (data loss prevention) to guard against source code leak thru email, file-share, etc?

DLP is best suited to identify structured data, such as credit cards numbers for PCI, social security numbers, etc. Source code often lacks that strict structure.  DLP is often turned off due to so many false positives.

 

Here’s a video where Malcolm Harkins says DLP just works to identify internal people who make accidental mistakes.
