Executive SummaryUpdated on Dec 3, 2024

Trend Micro Integrated Data Loss Prevention and Microsoft Purview Data Loss Prevention are both contenders in the data loss prevention solutions category. Microsoft Purview is seen as having an edge due to its comprehensive features.

Protects sensitive data across devices and helps address client compliance needs proactively

The reporting in Microsoft Purview Data Loss Prevention is a little easier than most Microsoft portals. I understand the licensing cost, especially if you're a Business Premium or in the SMB world, and a lot of clients run with a Business Premium. That comes with data loss prevention in a manual process, whereas E5 gives automation. Microsoft has said, 'Okay, here's your Microsoft 365 E5 compliance add-on that can go on the Business Premium.' So Business Premium users can get the data loss prevention features of E5, which is fantastic. That was the big point that they were missing, and I'm glad that they actually have an add-on now that makes it possible. So truly, I don't think there's a downside. Maybe more reporting, but that's it.

Email scanning and keyword monitoring improve compliance with data policies

Trend Micro DLP allows me to scan and monitor emails for specific words, ensuring compliance with data loss prevention policies. The DLP system captures keywords from email headers and subjects, and if those words are present, the DLP system operates accordingly. I also use DLP for monitoring data at rest, data in transit, and external devices.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

Pros

"Microsoft Purview Data Loss Prevention protects the organization from user data getting out that should not be out and works very well when assessing the ability to prevent unauthorized sharing of sensitive information."

"Microsoft Purview Data Loss Prevention has absolutely helped improve my organization's ability to manage data because we use M365 for the majority of our knowledge worker storage, and that's where people's data lives."

"We can use Microsoft Purview Data Loss Prevention to manage devices and site policies."

"My favorite feature about Microsoft Purview Data Loss Prevention is actually quite simple: there's a handful of things that you do, you create a new batch, it'll give you a unique ID, you copy that unique ID, it's a URL, and then you can put that into a script that we wrote so we just paste that in our script and then it uses that URL to upload all of those mailboxes, and then we can use that to import."

"I rate Microsoft Purview Data Loss Prevention's stability a ten out of ten."

"The impact of Microsoft Purview Data Loss Prevention's classification and policy controls on our productivity within our organization is significant, as it's helped our security team."

"The product has improved compliance and confidence. We are aware of the data that is leaving our organization. It provides confidence in data management and information storage."

"The solution's IDM (Indexed Document Matching), EDM (Exact Data Matching), and DCM (Described Content Matching) features have been most effective in identifying and mitigating potential data leaks."

More Microsoft Purview Data Loss Prevention pros

"There are no issues with the interface."

"Trend Micro DLP allows me to scan and monitor emails for specific words, ensuring compliance with data loss prevention policies."

"Trend Micro Integrated Data Loss Prevention is a reliable product."

"The interface and dashboard are okay."

"We use Trend Micro mainly to monitor user activities, such as tracking the websites they visit and purchase items. Additionally, we focus on identifying and addressing antivirus threats. We used to explore a feature related to proxy but decided against it as an enterprise solution wasn't readily available for us. Our primary use of Trend Micro revolves around end-user security. Integration with Active Directory has proven beneficial, allowing us to easily push updates or changes directly from the console."

"We find the initial setup to be very easy."

"We are able to check the log and keep records."

"The most values feature of this solution are the micro DLP features."

More Trend Micro Integrated Data Loss Prevention pros

Cons

"They do not provide language options beyond the ones already available, so our language option is missing."

"The tool's user interface and document fingerprinting have been very poor for my customers because uploading files manually can be problematic."

"Some main features are limited in comparison to other solutions."

"The solution should provide better integration with other systems."

"The support is poor."

"More training for end users on how it works would be beneficial."

"There is a need for improvements, particularly in ensuring that file-based recognition is more reliable and comprehensive."

"I see that there's a lot of content in Microsoft Purview Data Loss Prevention, and when I click on it and look around, I wonder what certain features do, but there's not enough documentation and explanation."

More Microsoft Purview Data Loss Prevention cons

"Having more features apart from what the product was designed for is what I'd like to see in its next release."

"There is a need for more predefined templates in the DLP tool."

"Within the solution, many of the functions do not perform as intended...It is not a stable solution...It is not a scalable solution."

"I would like to provide improved network direction in order to regulate all of the user agents. We only use Trend Micro Data Loss Prevention to manage various threats and malicious user agents currently."

"Typically, DLP solutions do not cover emails without an additional component, which necessitates a dual-service proposal. Comparatively, on-premises deployments offer more features locally than online or remote deployments, which sometimes face challenges with feature support. This is a common issue with Trend."

"Trend Micro could be priced better, currently, it's a bit high. And there needs to be better after the sale, technical support."

"The platform's support structure for government-specific domain requirements could be improved."

"Being able to specify an agent list, or client list, to allow support from outside of the organization, would be of benefit to this solution."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product has the best price-to-performance ratio."

"If one is very cheap and ten is very expensive, I rate the price as one out of ten."

"The cost works out to about $15 per user per month."

"Though I am not a specialist, the tool is quite expensive."

"Microsoft Purview Data Loss Prevention is part of a bundle and is not sold as a standalone product."

"You get the solution in a bundle if you get the E5 suite."

"It's a little bit pricey compared to competitors, but it's not too high."

"It is a part of our Microsoft licensing. We pay for a yearly renewal. Its price is reasonable for the size of the organization we are. It is fairly competitive, and you get what you pay for. We have an E5 license, and a part of understanding the E5 license is to see what all you get with it. If you really look at it from that standpoint, you get a lot of value. You have Defender and all its security features in there as well. Their licensing is fairly flexible. They have different programs. We've seen ones where you could pay for up to three to five years in advance. There is also a monthly pay-as-you-go type of deal, but we're doing a yearly renewal and fixing the budget."

More Microsoft Purview Data Loss Prevention pricing and cost advice

"The product is worth the money you pay for it. It is not an expensive solution."

"It's not too expensive, especially when compared to SecureTech, and Forcepoint. It's actually cheaper. A license costs about INR 4,000 to INR 5,000, roughly $60 per license per year. In comparison, Forcepoint licenses are around $90 to $95."

"Trend Micro Integrated Data Loss Prevention is expensive compared to other solutions."

"It's relatively cheap so the pricing is okay."

Overview

At Microsoft, our mission is to empower every person and every organization on the planet to achieve more. Our mission is grounded in both the world in which we live and the future we strive to create. Today, we live in a mobile-first, cloud-first world, and the transformation we are driving across our businesses is designed to enable Microsoft and our customers to thrive in this world.

Microsoft

Now more than ever, your data is on the move—whether it’s on a laptop, flash drive, or moving across physical, virtual, and cloud infrastructures. At any point along the way, your financial data, customer information, intellectual property, or trade secrets could be lost or stolen. Securing this data is further complicated by several growing risk factors:

Rapidly evolving compliance regulations and mandates, including GDPR
Continued growth of workforce mobility
Employees using their own mobile devices and consumer apps for work
Rising frequency of advanced persistent threats (APTs) and data breach incidents

To avoid the embarrassment, reputation damage, regulatory fines, and revenue loss, today’s enterprise must be able to identify, track, and secure all confidential data from multiple points within the organisation and in the cloud without impacting employee productivity and performance. In the past, many organisations tried traditional data loss prevention (DLP) solutions but found they were too intrusive, too complex to manage, and too costly to acquire, deploy, and maintain.
