Automated scans have classified sensitive data and protect privacy in complex environments
When someone asks where sensitive data is located and to classify it, they would start working manually and would take four or five months to detect only that sensitive data. Google Cloud Data Loss Prevention helps significantly. They have a predefined template, and whatever category comes under sensitive data has been researched with almost 99% accuracy and included in the template. A person needs to attach the template and scan their data. Once initiated, it will take time, such as 24 hours or 48 hours, depending on the data size. Once the template is applied and the system scans it, a tagging report of the sensitive data locations is returned. A report is available, and what previously would have taken a month can now be achieved by Google Cloud Data Loss Prevention services in detecting sensitive PII data within 48 hours maximum, even if the data size is larger. Once the report is available, the person would know where the sensitive data is located. Dealing with sensitive data is the next question. If data is not to be shared, it has to be hidden, masked, or changed. All kinds of things can be applied to dealing with that data. Google Cloud Data Loss Prevention has another feature available called de-identification services, which deals with sensitive data in applications or production environments.

Has supported centralized management while needing improvements in feature depth
I have experience working with SentinelOne XDR, EDR, and XDR. Trellix DLP also offers EDR, XDR, and DLP solutions. The platform can be on the cloud, but the end users typically have their own devices installed with DLP on-premises. On a scale from one to ten, I rate Trellix DLP a seven.

"The support from both the vendor and Trellix is excellent."
"Trellix DLP offers many features, using EDR, EPP, disk encryption, and other features."
"It is a very stable solution."
"The best thing about Trellix DLP is its unified console that allows us to manage all products from endpoint protection to email protection, DLP, and many more, including SIM."

"Trellix can transfer the data through the cloud. The storage device control is an important feature."
 

Cons

"Improvement are made as per client requirement."
"Google Cloud Data Loss Prevention has a system, but it is not very mature."
"Coverage for Mac OS is lacking as features like clipboard and print protection don't function as expected. The agents often affect endpoint performance negatively and do not behave consistently across all machines."
"The bugs need improvement."
"In future releases, I would like to see like to see encryption available on the cloud-based version."
"Trellix DLP can improve by addressing the lack of features such as deep drive DLP and email notifications present in other solutions like Forcepoint."
"Trellix needs to improve customer support."
"If I compare Trellix DLP with other solutions such as Forcepoint, Trellix DLP isn't up to the mark."
"The support team's response time during the night is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"The main challenge we face is with our on-premises Trellix DLP implementation. While we can push the agent, we cannot apply the policy on Azure systems."
