MyDLP is a data loss prevention solution originally available released as free and open source software. Supported data inspection channels include web, mail, instant messaging, file transfer to removable storage devices and printers. The MyDLP development project originally made its source code available under the terms of the GNU General Public License. [1]

Contents

MyDLP was one of the first free software projects for data loss prevention, [2] [3] but was acquired by the Comodo Group in May 2014. Comodo has since begun marketing the Enterprise version through its Comodo Security Solutions subsidiary, [4] [5] while the free version has been removed from the website. [6] The open source code has not been updated since early 2014. [7]

Subprojects

As of October 2010, MyDLP included the following subprojects: [8] [9]

Platforms and interfaces

MyDLP Network was mostly written in Erlang, because of its performance on concurrent network operations. [10] Python was also used for a few exceptional cases. [11] This subsystem could run on any platform that supported Erlang and Python. [12]

MyDLP Endpoint was developed for Windows platforms, [13] and it was written in C++, C#. [14]

MyDLP Web UI was written in PHP and Adobe Flex. [15] It used MySQL in order to store user configurations. [16]

Features

As of October 2010, MyDLP included widespread data loss prevention features [17] such as text extraction from binary formats, incident management queue, source code detection and data identification methods for bank account, credit card and several national identification numbers. [18] Besides, features like data classification through statistical analysis of trained sentences and native language processor integrated Naive Bayes classifier [19] were claimed to be included.

Microsoft, a technology company historically known for its opposition to the open source software paradigm, turned to embrace the approach in the 2010s. From the 1970s through 2000s under CEOs Bill Gates and Steve Ballmer, Microsoft viewed the community creation and sharing of communal code, later to be known as free and open source software, as a threat to its business, and both executives spoke negatively against it. In the 2010s, as the industry turned towards cloud, embedded, and mobile computing—technologies powered by open source advances—CEO Satya Nadella led Microsoft towards open source adoption although Microsoft's traditional Windows business continued to grow throughout this period generating revenues of 26.8 billion in the third quarter of 2018, while Microsoft's Azure cloud revenues nearly doubled.
