Endpoint Data Loss Prevention (DLP) provides coverage for remote and mobile workers by applying DLP policies to data loss events, even when devices are not connected to the corporate network.
Increased risk of losing or having sensitive information stolen when employees are remote or on unmanaged networks
Lack of visibility and control over data transfers on endpoints (e.g., USB drives, external devices)
Inconsistent security policies create difficulty in enforcing data loss prevention across locations
Example Scenario
Assume a remote employee, working from home, copies confidential client contracts from corporate laptop to an unknown USB drive.
Violation Aspects
The files being copied contain sensitive client agreements
Data transfer was performed to an unauthorized removable storage device (USB drive)
The result is an unauthorized local copy of sensitive corporate data
Cloud-native Endpoint DLP leverages lightweight agents to monitor, control, and block sensitive data transfers from laptops and endpoints, regardless of network connection.
Prevented unauthorized transfer of sensitive data to external devices
Consistent, enforced data protection for remote and mobile employees
Complete incident logging with device and user details for audit and response
DLP agents monitor data-in-use actions, including copy/paste, USB transfers, screen capturing, and printing
Real-time policy updates are pushed to endpoint agents from a cloud management console
The agent enforces policy when a violation occurs by blocking, encrypting or alerting - even when the device is offline
Provides consistent DLP protection whether on corporate networks, public Wi-Fi or offline
