Explanation

DLP (Data Loss Prevention) solutions monitor, detect, and block the transmission of sensitive data based on policies - for example, preventing emails containing credit card numbers, confidential documents, or proprietary data from being sent outside the organization. This is precisely the use case described. EDR (B) is Endpoint Detection and Response, focused on malware and threats, not data exfiltration via email policy. DNSSEC (C) provides DNS integrity, not email content inspection. SPF (D) is a Sender Policy Framework record that helps prevent email spoofing, not content-based data loss.
