Subprojects

As of October 2010, MyDLP include the following subprojects[4][5]:

Platforms and interfaces

MyDLP Network is mostly written in Erlang, because of its performance on concurrent network operations [6]. Python is also used for a few exceptional cases, too [7]. This subsystem could run on any platform supports Erlang and Python[8].

MyDLP Endpoint is developed for Windows platforms[9], and it is written in C++, C# [10].

MyDLP Web UI is written in PHP and Adobe Flex[11]. It uses MySQL in order to store user configurations[12].

Features

As of October 2010, MyDLP includes widespread data loss prevention features [13] 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[14]. Besided, features like data classification through statistical analysis of trained sentences and native language processor integrated Naive Bayes classifier [15] are claimed to be inspiring.
