Supported Applications
Data Classification supports numerous applications which can be found here.
Supported File Types
Data Access Security Classification analyzes data based on files content, attributes and metadata. It supports file properties (attributes) and custom properties (attributes), as part of its metadata analysis, for all supported file types.
Image files can be scanned, analyzed, and classified using an optical character recognition (OCR) capability. Since OCR-based analysis is a resource-intensive operation, which can impact scan performance, it is recommended to enable it only when needed and on a limited scope. Refer to Optical Character Recognition for more information.
The Data Classification engine supports the following file types/extensions:
| File Extension | Expected File Type |
|---|---|
| docx, doc, xls, xlsx, ppt, pptx | Microsoft Office Files |
| txt, csv | Plain Text (including Comma Separated Values files) |
| htm, html, xml | Web files |
| cs, js, sql | Code script files |
| Adobe | |
| zip, gzip, tar, rar, 7zip | Archive files |
| bmp, emf, gif, jpeg, jpg, pdf, tif, tiff, png, wmf | Image files analyzed by the OCR module* |
