We do. We have to comply with HIPAA regulations and sending PHI (personal health information) unsecured outside our company would be a bad thing for us. As a result we scan for a number of message criteria such as SSN, Birth date, various other key terms to prevent calls to our PHI compliance officer. We use some products from Tumbleweed. Very expensive.
At this point we bounce back to the sender any message that trigger the filter and kick a copy of the message to the compliance group. We have a manual keyword trigger that's supposed to be there to encrypt messages and we have one to 'bypass' the filters but that also kicks a copy of the message to the compliance team. This has occasionally resulted in discussions with people who 'should know better' and they then find out that they 'will not do this again' in an uncomfortable meeting.
