Initiating classification

Data Insight lets you scope the classification for a share, folder, or file. For example, you can prioritize classification of files accessed by a risky user (based on the user risk score) or by a watch-listed user.

Files in the classification request are evaluated against policies configured in Veritas Information Classifier and matching tags are assigned. Note that every policy can have multiple tags and the same tags may be reused in different policies. Thus, you may see multiple files being assigned the same tags even if they are being evaluated against different policies.

You can initiate classification of files in the following ways:

You can review the status of the classification request from the Classification > Requests tab.

See Viewing classification status.

Once the classification of files is complete, you can review the tags assigned to the files and take the appropriate remediation action, such as archiving or deleting.

You can also cancel only in-progress request.
