To subscribe or unsubscribe to DLP events

After your BMC Helix ITSM application is successfully registered with Microsoft Office 365, you can configure your BMC Helix ITSM application to subscribe to DLP events from Microsoft Office 365. After you subscribe to DLP events, BMC Helix ITSM receives the enriched DLP events to further create DLP incidents and route them to the appropriate compliance group. Assignment routing of the DLP events is critical to ensure data compliance.

Subscribe to DLP events so that DLP incidents can be created in BMC Helix ITSM. After you register your BMC Helix ITSM application with Microsoft Office 365, you can subscribe to either Microsoft SharePoint or Microsoft Exchange events.

You can subscribe to the following events:

  • Microsoft SharePointTo track document violations in SharePoint O365 that match one or more DLP rule conditions.
  • Microsoft ExchangeTo track email violations in Exchange O365 with content that matches one or more DLP rule conditions.

Important

The DLP.ALL subscription returns the sensitive data along with the DLP events. To enable this option, select Yes for the Include Sensitive Data for Active Subscriptions option and click Apply. You will be subscribed to receive sensitive information if the application created in Azure AD in Office 365 has the Read DLP policy events including detected sensitive data permission.
