Abstract
A method and apparatus for determining whether a document is to be protected is described. In one embodiment, a computer system identifies a document to be categorized. The computer system then determines one or more probabilities that the document belongs to one or more of a plurality of predefined categories, the probabilities based on profiles of the predefined categories. The computer system then determines whether the probabilities indicate that the document is to be protected, and, if the document is to be protected, causes the document to be used in data loss detection.
