DLP - Data Loss Prevention uses exact data matching or regex matching - in this case a regex rule for detecting credit card numbers could be in place that is actively blocking the upload of the document - Regex for detecting and Amex Card: ^3[47][0-9]{13}$ Source https://stackoverflow.com/questions/9315647/regex-credit-card-number-tests

The control that is most likely causing this issue and should be checked FIRST is Data Loss Prevention (DLP). Data Loss Prevention is designed to prevent sensitive information, such as payment card numbers or personally identifiable information (PII), from being accidentally or maliciously disclosed outside the organization.

DLP is a security control that is designed to prevent sensitive or confidential information from being leaked, intentionally or unintentionally, outside of the organization's network. It helps identify and block the transmission of sensitive data, such as payment card numbers, to unauthorized recipients. In this scenario, the pop-up message indicates that a payment card number was found in the file, and as a result, the file upload was blocked. This behavior aligns with the functionality of a DLP control, which scans files or data being transferred and checks for the presence of specific patterns or formats that match sensitive information.
