Explanation
A Data Loss Prevention (DLP) strategy directly addresses the problem of unauthorized access and exfiltration of sensitive data. DLP tools monitor, detect, and block suspicious data transfers, ensuring that insiders or former employees cannot copy, email, or upload sensitive information without authorization.
