For example, if you register two documents; one with 100 pages of content, and another with 10 pages, a setting of 30% would require 30 pages to match the document with 100 pages, and just 3 pages to match the document of 10 pages. The algorithm involved in DLP is sophisticated and involves text normalization, common word removal, and signature generation. These figures offer a guideline only. Number of consecutive signatures (advanced): Set the number of sequential signatures which will cause a trigger.
