OfficeScan monitors
data transmissions through the Server Message Block (SMB) protocol,
which facilitates shared file access. When another user attempts
to copy or read a user’s shared file,
OfficeScan checks
if the file is or contains a data identifier and then allows or
blocks the operation.

Note
The Device Control action has a higher priority than the
DLP action. For example, if Device Control does not allow files
on mapped network drives to be moved, transmission of sensitive
data does not proceed even if DLP allows it. For details on Device
Control actions, see Permissions for Storage Devices.

monitors for shared file access, see the Data Protection Lists document
