Understanding Data Loss Prevention (DLP)

Data Loss Prevention (DLP) is a set of tools and processes designed to detect and prevent the unauthorized use, transfer, or destruction of sensitive data. In an era where data breaches cost enterprises millions and AI tools like ChatGPT create new data exfiltration vectors, DLP has become mission-critical infrastructure for every organization.

Nextguard provides enterprise-grade DLP solutions powered by AI, protecting sensitive data across endpoints, networks, email, and cloud applications. As the independent vendor with complete Skyguard technology authorization and source code rights, Nextguard delivers proven DLP technology enhanced with next-generation AI capabilities.

Network DLP

Monitors data in transit across the network. Inspects email, web traffic, and file transfers to prevent sensitive data from leaving the organization through any channel.

Cloud DLP (CASB)

Extends DLP policies to SaaS applications like Microsoft 365, Salesforce, and collaboration tools. Critical for organizations adopting cloud-first strategies.
