Supported Email Locations
- Locally Stored Email Data
- IMAP/IMAPS Mailbox
- HCL Notes
Licensing
For Sitewide Licenses, all scanned email Targets consume data from the Sitewide License data allowance limit.
For Non-Sitewide Licenses, email Targets require Client Licenses, and consume data from the Client License data allowance limit.
See Target Licenses for more information.
Scan Locally Stored Email Data
When running a local storage and local memory scan (refer to the Scan Local Storage and Local Memory section), ER Cloud detects and scans offline email data stores and data files for sensitive data. ER Cloud does not scan data files locked by the email server.
Scanning a locally stored email data file may produce matches from ghost records or slack space that you are not able to find on the live email server itself.
- Stop the Microsoft Exchange Information Store service and back up the Microsoft Exchange Server.
- Once the backup is complete, copy the backup of the Information Store to a location that ER2 can access.
- Select that location as a Local Storage location. For more information, refer to the Scan Local Storage and Local Memory section.
Scan IMAP/IMAPS Mailbox
To scan IMAP/IMAPs mailboxes, check that your system meets the following requirements:
Requirements | Description |
---|---|
Proxy Agent |
Use the pre-configured Linux cloud Agents to scan cloud
Targets only. For the list of Targets according to the type, refer to
Target Types in the
Add Targets
section. For more information about Agents in ER Cloud, refer to the
About Enterprise Recon Cloud 2.12.0 section.

Email client | The Target Internet mailbox must have IMAP enabled. |
Add an IMAP/IMAPS Mailbox Target
- From the New Scan page, add Targets. Refer to the Add Targets section.
- In the Enter New Target Hostname field, enter the name of the IMAP/IMAPS server for the mailbox you want to scan.
- Select the IMAP mailbox type to set up:
- IMAP: Select Email > Internet Mailbox.
- IMAPS (IMAP over SSL): Select Email > Internet SSL Mailbox.
-
In the Internet Mailbox or Internet SSL Mailbox page, fill in the following fields:
Field Description Path Enter the email address that you want to scan.
For example, <user_name@domain_name.com>.New Credential Label Enter a descriptive label for the credential set. New Username Your internet mailbox user name. Password Your internet mailbox password. Agent to act as proxy host Select a Proxy Agent host with direct Internet access. Recommended Least Privilege User ApproachData discovery or scanning of data requires read access. Remediation actions that act directly on supported file systems including Delete Permanently, Quarantine, Encryption and Masking require write access in order to change, delete and overwrite data.
To reduce the risk of data loss or privileged account abuse, the Target credentials provided for the intended Target should only be granted read-only access to the exact resources and data that require scanning. Never grant full user access privileges or unrestricted data access to any application if it is not required.
- Click Test. If ER Cloud can connect to the Target, the button changes to a Commit button.
- Click Commit to add the Target.
Scan HCL Notes
To scan HCL Notes mailboxes, check that your system meets the following requirements:
Requirements | Description |
---|---|
Proxy Agent |
One task at a time
Each Agent can perform only one task at a time. Attempting to perform multiple tasks simultaneously, for example, scanning and probing a Notes Target at the same time, will cause an error. To perform multiple tasks at the same time, use multiple Agents. Use the pre-configured Linux cloud Agents to scan cloud
Targets only. For the list of Targets according to the type, refer to
Target Types in the
Add Targets
section. For more information about Agents in ER Cloud, refer to the
About Enterprise Recon Cloud 2.12.0 section.

Notes client | The Agent host must have one of the following installed:

Single-user installation | ER Cloud works best with an Agent host running a single-user installation of the Notes client. |
Admin user | User credentials with administrator rights to the target mailbox. |
Others | Make sure that:

Syntax: (partition=<server_partition_name>)
Example: (partition=serverPartitionA)Specify a server partition when:
- Connecting to a specific server partition in a Domino domain.
- The target Domino server has a server name that is different from its host name.
To connect to a specific path in serverPartitionA on a Domino server, enter:
(partition=serverPartitionA)/administrator/exampledomain/mail/administ.nsf.New Credential Label Enter a descriptive label for the credential set. New Username Your Notes user name. Refer to the Identify Notes User Name section below. New Password Your HCL Notes password. Agent to act as proxy host Select a Proxy Agent that resides on a Proxy host with the appropriate HCL Notes client installed. Recommended Least Privilege User ApproachTo reduce the risk of data loss or privileged account abuse, the Target credentials provided for the intended Target should only be granted read-only access to the exact resources and data that require scanning. Never grant full user access privileges or unrestricted data access to any application if it is not required.
