Explanation
Data Loss Prevention (DLP) strategies address three data states: data at rest, data in transit, and data in use. Endpoint protection is the DLP strategy most effective for securing data in use - data actively being processed, accessed, or manipulated on a device. Endpoint DLP agents monitor and control what users do with data (copy, print, screenshot, upload) in real time on the endpoint. Email scanning protects data in transit. Content discovery identifies and classifies data at rest. Database fingerprinting helps identify sensitive data patterns but is not specifically a 'data in use' control.
