Explanation

Data loss prevention (DLP) risk is most directly tied to applications that enable large, uncontrolled, and uninspected file transfers outside the organization. BitTorrent and P2P applications represent the highest data exfiltration risk because files can be shared with any external party without going through monitored channels. Blocking BitTorrent directly addresses unauthorized data leaving the network. Blocking URLs with unknown reputation (A) or uncategorized URLs (C) is overly broad and would break legitimate access. Blocking Dropbox (B) may be valid in some policies but is not the primary answer when BitTorrent is present, as Dropbox traffic is inspectable and controllable unlike BitTorrent.
