Only recording the outgoing behavior can help administrators know "the file was sent out"; and turning on the outbound file backup can further preserve "which file was sent out." For businesses that need to review content after the fact, secure original evidence, or meet internal audit requirements,

**Breach Backup**

is a very important enhancement in addition to

**Breach Tracking**

.

It is recommended that administrators configure the backup scope in a refined manner based on business risks. For highly sensitive positions such as R&D, finance, human resources, and legal affairs, the scope of backup can be appropriately relaxed; for ordinary office positions, backup can be selectively combined with external channels and file rules to take into account both audit value and storage cost.

#### **Configuration steps**

can be set to

**All Routes**

or

**Specified Outbound Routes**

:

-   All channels: Backups are performed for employees’ external actions through any channel
-   Specify outgoing channels: Only perform backups for outgoing behaviors through designated channels (such as WeChat, browsers, network disks, etc.)

**Configure the specified outbound channel:**

Click the Settings button.Check outbound channels such as browsers, instant messaging software, and email clients.

Support custom programs: Select "Custom Program" and click the Settings button to fill in the process name of the custom program.

**4\. Rules**

can be set to

**All files**

or

**Composite rules**

:

-   All files: Back up all outbound files
-   Compound rules: can be set according to file type and file size, and only files that meet the conditions will be backed up

5\. After the policy setting is completed, confirm the policy application endpoint.After confirming the policy application endpoint, click

**Apply**

to start the backup operation of files sent by employees.

6.After the policy is issued, click

**Data Security**

→

**Leak Tracking**

to view the outbound file backup records:

-   When the outbound file audit record has the backup flag, it means that the outbound file has been backed up.
-   The backup file can be viewed directly in the console

#### **Effect verification and implementation suggestions**

It is recommended to send the test file on the test endpoint through an outgoing channel that has been included in the backup scope, and then go to

**Data Security**

→

**Leak Tracking**

to confirm whether the backup mark appears on the record, and further check whether the corresponding backup file can be opened or viewed. If no backup results appear, priority should be given to checking whether the outgoing channels, rule conditions, and policy application endpoints are accurate.

-   If there are many outbound channels, it is recommended to configure backup for high-risk channels first, such as instant messaging, browser upload, network disk or email client.
-   If an enterprise only cares about specific types of files, it is recommended to use **composite rules** for filtering to avoid indiscriminate backups that generate a large amount of low-value data.
-   For long-term enabled backup strategies, server storage capacity and access permissions should be planned simultaneously to prevent backup itself from becoming a new data management risk.
