Data Loss Prevention (DLP) is a technology that prevents data leaks, whether caused by external attacks or Inside Threats. The solution operates across multiple levels: network, endpoints, cloud services, communication applications, and more.
Effective protection requires knowing which data is sensitive, where it is stored, how it flows and whether it is encrypted.
Artificial intelligence is a key component of DLP, evaluating whether an activity constitutes a security incident or simply a deviation from standard user behavior.
