What is Symantec DLP?

Symantec Data Loss Prevention (DLP), now a Broadcom product, is a suite of technologies designed to detect and prevent sensitive data from leaving an organization's control. It's commonly used to protect intellectual property, comply with data privacy regulations (like GDPR, CCPA, HIPAA), and prevent data breaches. DLP solutions typically involve discovering sensitive data, monitoring data usage, and enforcing policies to block or control the movement of data based on predefined rules and classifications.
