What is DLP?
Paubox Data Loss Prevention (DLP) scans outgoing email from your organization to prevent sensitive data from leaking externally, whether accidentally or maliciously. With DLP, you can customize your scanning criteria to look for sensitive information such as Social Security numbers, credit card numbers, spreadsheets with large data sets, etc. Any emails that include sensitive information will be placed into quarantine and can be released or blocked by the administrator. DLP is available with Email Suite Premium.
