Preparing for database fingerprinting

Use the Main > Policy Management > Content Classifiers > Database Fingerprinting page to classify your content by fingerprinting database records.

The Database Fingerprinting page displays a fingerprint list appears.

Expand the right pane to view more details, such as last run time and next run time, or collapse it to show fewer details.

Click the links in the details pane to learn more about the fingerprinted records.

Start, stop, or pause a fingerprinting task using buttons in the toolbar at the top of the content pane.

To create a new classifier, click New in the toolbar at the top of the content pane, then select Database Table Fingerprinting, Salesforce Fingerprinting, or CSV File Fingerprinting.

A wizard opens. See Database Fingerprinting Wizard - General.


	Important The fingerprinting technology uses data source names (DSNs) to perform database record fingerprinting. Before beginning the wizard, create a DSN for the database records that you intend to fingerprint. See Preparing for database fingerprinting for instructions.

Complete the information on each page and click Next to proceed through the wizard.


	Note To import an existing fingerprinting classifier—one that has been exported and copied to a network location—select Import from the database fingerprinting toolbar. See Imported fingerprinting for more information.
