Update the Indexed Data Set Periodically

When your source data changes, the existing EDM Identifier on your configured policy must be updated to reflect the new data fingerprints. Using a script allows you to automatically rerun the DLP indexer periodically to update your source data to Secure Access without manually performing the initial procedure over again. After you rerun the DLP indexer with the updated version of the source file against the ID of your EDM Identifier, the DLP Policies configured with that EDM Identifier account for the most recent updates to your critical records.

  1. In a terminal window, set the the API Key and Secret previously used to index the identifier (saved in Step 8d of Create an Exact Data Match Identifier ) to the environment variables DLP_AUTH_KEY and DLP_AUTH_SECRET.
  2. Run the command to re-index the identifier as part of a periodically executed script or manually as needed:

    java -jar <directory_path>\dlp-indexer.jar -i "<directory_path>\<source-file>.csv"

    -e <edm_template-id> -k DLP_AUTH_KEY -s DLP_AUTH_SECRET

    Where:

    • \<directory_path>\dlp-indexer.jar —the relative path to the location of the DLP indexer

    • "\<directory_path>\<source-file>".csv —the relative path to the csv spreadsheet with the actual data record.

    • <edm-template-id> —the ID used to index the EDM Identifier originally.
