Getting Started With McAfee Host Data Loss Prevention

Overview

Though external threats and attacks remain a major concern for CIOs and CSOs, loss of the company's most valued data often is the result of insider actions. Some of these actions are intentional and malicious, but the larger percentage is accidental and unintended, the result of employees' ignorance about data protection policies or their willingness to skirt policies in order to work more productively. In response to this challenge, enterprises are deploying Data Loss Prevention (DLP) solutions to block sensitive information from leaving the company via unauthorized channels, while still enabling legitimate business activity.
