Enterprise DLP - Source Code

L1 Bithead

I'm testing enterprise DLP and I'm wondering how I can test source code?  I asked my SE and he gave me the following answer which explains what is done to inspect source code but not how to test source code:

 

"For document types such as 'source code', 'legal documents', 'financial documents', etc we leverage machine learning models to classify the data.   The ML models use a combination of test classification, RegEx, anomaly detection, NLP, token analysis, semantic analysis and others."

 

When testing data like credit card numbers, SSNs, or sensitivity labels it is simple to create a rule, pass traffic, and know which data should be stopped and which data should be permitted.  When testing source code I have no idea what should be permitted and what should be blocked by DLP.

 

Has anyone tested source code in eDLP?

If so, how are you testing it?

Does anyone know what types of data in source code should be blocked?

 

Thanks for the help!

-John
