#### <mark style="color:$primary;">**Step 1: Log in to DoubleTick**</mark>

Log in to your DoubleTick account using the **Primary Owner's credentials**, as only the owner has permission to configure Enterprise Security.

***

#### <mark style="color:$primary;">**Step 4: Open Block Sensitive Information**</mark>

Click **Block Sensitive Information** to configure how sensitive text and media should be handled.

You will see two sections:

* **Media Blocking**
* **Text Blocking**

***

#### <mark style="color:$primary;">**Step 5: Configure Media Blocking**</mark>

Enable the toggle for **Media Blocking**.

You can choose one of the following options:

Reject\
Media containing sensitive data will be blocked.

Blur\
Sensitive information in media will be blurred before storing or sharing.

***

#### <mark style="color:$primary;">**Step 6: Configure Text Blocking**</mark>

Enable the toggle for **Text Blocking**.

You can choose how text messages containing sensitive information should be handled:

Reject\
Messages containing sensitive data will not be sent.

Mask\
Sensitive information inside the message will be hidden.

***

#### <mark style="color:$primary;">**Step 7: Add Your Security API Endpoint**</mark>

Provide your **Security API Endpoint URL**.

This API analyzes the message or media and returns the response indicating whether sensitive data exists and how it should be handled.

Your organization’s technical team typically provides this API.

***

#### <mark style="color:$primary;">**Step 8: Save and Connect**</mark>

After adding the API endpoint and selecting your preferred settings: Save the configuration & Connect the API

Once configured, all messages and media will follow the security rules defined by your API.

Enterprise Security enables organizations to enforce their own data protection policies while communicating with customers. By integrating existing security systems with DoubleTick, enterprises can ensure that sensitive information is consistently protected across conversations.
