Exam SY0-601 topic 1 question 11 discussion

Data loss prevention (DLP) makes sure that users do not send sensitive or critical information outside the corporate network.

DLP is a comprehensive security solution designed to identify, monitor, and protect sensitive data from unauthorized access, use, or exfiltration. It helps organizations prevent data breaches and leakage by monitoring data movement both within the network and when data is being transferred to external destinations, such as the internet. 1. Content inspection: DLP solutions inspect data in real-time and at rest to identify sensitive information, such as Personally Identifiable Information (PII), financial data, intellectual property, or other confidential information. 2. Policy-based controls: Organizations can define policies that specify how sensitive data should be handled and protected. DLP tools enforce these policies by taking appropriate actions when data matches predefined criteria, such as blocking, encrypting, or quarantining the data. 3. Network monitoring: DLP solutions monitor network traffic and endpoints to detect suspicious activities and potential data exfiltration attempts. 4. Data encryption: DLP tools can include encryption capabilities, which add an extra layer of protection to sensitive data, making it unreadable to unauthorized parties even if it is somehow intercepted.

DLP systems are specifically designed to detect and prevent the unauthorized use and transmission of confidential information. They can be set up to monitor data at rest, in use, and in motion, and can take action to block unauthorized data transfers.

A data loss prevention solution is the most effective piece of software to prevent data exfiltration. The automated enforcement of an organization’s data handling policy restricts the unauthorized use of data resources. This includes prohibiting sensitive or high-value data, as defined by the data handling policy, from being transmitted out of the environment.

DLP is that data bank account. Nothing gets transferred without proper authorization.

DLP systems are designed to monitor and control the flow of sensitive information within an organization's network. They can detect and prevent unauthorized data transfers, whether intentional or accidental, by monitoring network traffic, data storage systems, and endpoints. DLP systems can identify sensitive data based on predefined policies, such as personally identifiable information (PII), credit card numbers, or intellectual property, and take actions to prevent its unauthorized disclosure.

I echo that these discussions really helped. I just passed as well.

A. DLP tracks data moving within the network, and can block the data when it is in danger of leaving the corporate network.

Correct Answer : A

the answers right in front of you. option A

Data Loss Prevention

FDE performs full disk encryption but it can not stop or prevent data exfiltration. The answer is A - Data Loss Prevention (DLP)

Data Loss Prevention is the clear winner here.

Correct Answer: DLP

it prevents data to be extracted form a corporate network.

DLP correct here
