    About this task

    You can configure the evidence file storage to securely store files. This provides an option for internal storage in ServiceNow instance, ensuring that files are stored and encrypted using ServiceNow Column Level Encryption. For more information, see Encryption Support on ServiceNow AI Platform documentation.

    When a DLP analyst or approver performs the Download evidence files for DLP Incidents action from analyst workspace, the file will be downloaded from the selected storage if evidence file storage option is enabled. Otherwise, the file will be downloaded directly from the Microsoft source and will not be persisted in the ServiceNow instance. For more information, see Download files for DLP incidents of type Exchange Online, OneDrive, and SharePoint.
