Glossary ​

One name for each object the console shows (DLP-735, DLP-736). A reader who meets two words assumes two objects, and asks which one they are looking at. When a sentence needs a name, it uses the one here.

apps/dashboard/src/copy.test.ts enforces the retired words below in the console's copy. That covers JSX text, the attributes a person reads, and quoted sentences. It does not cover identifiers, API paths or comments, so /api/v1/enrollment-tokens and a component named Corpora keep their names. A new retired word belongs in that test and in this file, together.

NameWhat it isRetired words
EndpointA computer running the MyDLP agent, enrolled in this organisation. The Endpoints destination lists them."device" for this object, in the Endpoints destination (DLP-768)
DeviceRemovable media - a USB stick, an external disk - as Device control approves or refuses it.
Enrol, enrolmentJoining an endpoint to the organisation with an enrolment token. British spelling, as behaviour and organisation are; enrolled and enrolling are spelt the same either way. The agent's command is dlp-agent enroll --token, typed as shown.enroll, enrollment
ClassificationThe area where detectors, classifications, exact data and document fingerprints are defined, and a single classification within it.Data classification
Fingerprint setA named, versioned set of documents whose fingerprints endpoints match against. The page is Document fingerprints.corpus, corpora
Test setThe labelled documents a detector's quality is measured against. Not a fingerprint set: "corpus" named both, which is why it is retired.corpus
ScanOne execution of discovery against one location. A repeating scan is a series of scans. Remediation's run is a plan's, a different object.run (in Discovery)
Incident deliveryWhere incidents are forwarded: a SIEM, a webhook, a tracker. One target is an incident destination.integration(s), in copy
Report destinationWhere a scheduled report is delivered. Separate from incident destinations by design: a report destination never receives the incident feed.
Behaviour analysisThe Analytics page of what the organisation's data activity looks like.
Named individualsThe Settings panel that decides whether that analysis may name a person, with the basis recorded."Behaviour analysis" as this panel's label
RepeatsIncidents grouped because the same person, endpoint or policy keeps producing them, at two scales: repeats within minutes (the strip above the queue) and repeats over days (the grouped view). ADR-0055.burst
RelatedIncidents a person linked, suggestions offered with a reason, and recurrences of a closed incident, on the record.
EventsThe operations inside one incident, listed on its Events tab.correlated events

The storage keys a browser keeps (mydlp.devices.*), the ?device= address parameter and the CSV's column keys still say "device": they are names code and saved preferences depend on, not copy, and renaming a storage key would silently reset every saved layout.

Statements here describe what is built and tested; planned work is marked as planned.
