Platforms and interfaces
MyDLP Network is mostly written in Erlang, because of its performance on concurrent network operations. Python is also used for a few exceptional cases, too. This subsystem could run on any platform that supports Erlang and Python.
MyDLP Endpoint is developed for Windows platforms, and it is written in C++, C#.
MyDLP Web UI is written in PHP and Adobe Flex. It uses MySQL in order to store user configurations.
Features
As of October 2010, MyDLP includes widespread data loss prevention features 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. Besided, features like data classification through statistical analysis of trained sentences and native language processor integrated Naive Bayes classifier are claimed to be inspiring.
