Abstract
Apparatuses, methods and articles of manufacture for performing data leakage prevention are provided. Data leakage prevention may be performed by determining a signature of a transmitted document, the transmitted document being in transit to a location beyond a network boundary. The signature of the transmitted document is compared with one or more signatures of documents authorized to be transmitted beyond the network boundary. The transmitted document is prevented from being transmitted beyond the network boundary if the signature of the document does not correspond to a signature of a document authorized to be transmitted beyond the network boundary.
