The correct answer is A . Forcepoint DSPM pattern matching is designed to let administrators define and tune custom detection logic for organisation-specific sensitive data. The documented pattern-matching function identifies particular information in documents by using Regular Expressions , and Forcepoint notes that pattern matching uses Golang RegEx syntax, which is separate from Detector syntax.
When a new pattern is added under Administration > Pattern Matching , the configuration includes Pattern Name , Regular Expression , enablement state, hidden RegEx handling, and tag assignments for Classification , Compliance , and Distribution . Forcepoint states that the Regular Expression is “the sequence to be matched,” and that selected tags can override machine-learning model output during endpoint suggestions and file scans. This supports the principle that custom patterns can be adjusted so the RegEx better matches an organisation’s data formats, identifiers, project codes, or regulatory artifacts.
The other statements do not match the documented pattern workflow. Country assignment is not presented as a core custom-pattern field. Export/import of data patterns is not part of the stated pattern-matching configuration flow. Default or preconfigured patterns are provided as built-in detection content and should not be treated as administrator-editable RegEx templates.
