Data
               Loss Prevention (DLP) safeguards an organization's confidential
               and sensitive data-referred to as digital assets-against accidental
               disclosure and intentional theft. DLP allows you to:
- 
Identify the digital assets to protect
- 
Create policies that limit or prevent the transmission of digital assets through common channels, such as email and external devices
- 
Enforce compliance to established privacy standards
DLP evaluates data against a set of rules defined in policies.
               Policies determine the data that must be protected from unauthorized
               transmission and the action that DLP performs when it detects transmission.
