    • Transport rules instructs Gmail to forward emails to Enterprise DLP and establish the actions Gmail takes based on verdicts rendered by Enterprise DLP.
      A transport rule is not required for emails that match your Email DLP policy where the action is set to Monitor. In this case, the x-panw-action - monitor email header is added, a DLP incident is created, and the email continues to its intended recipient.
    • The DLP email policy specifies the incident severity and the action Enterprise DLP takes when matching traffic is inspected and sensitive data is detected.
