Data Loss Prevention (DLP) is a set of tools and strategies used by IT security teams to detect and prevent unauthorized access, transmission, or leakage of sensitive information, such as personal data, financial records, or intellectual property. DLP systems monitor data in use, in motion, and at rest, applying policies to block or flag risky actions like emailing confidential files outside the company. It is a key component of cybersecurity and regulatory compliance programs (e.g., GDPR, HIPAA).
