Data protection has improved as we restrict uploads to third-party sites and control devices
We are using customizable policies in the product. Everything is fine regarding alerting and reporting features; we got a notification as well as we received the required events, and it is working well. McAfee Total Protection for Data Loss Prevention is different; whatever the logs are there, they are available on the ePO, so we cannot directly integrate DLP to any third-party tool. We need to actually integrate the ePO itself to enable integration. We are just restricting data to be uploaded, which is the best option that allows us to control organizational data, making it the biggest benefit for us in McAfee Total Protection for Data Loss Prevention. We are protecting data to be uploaded on third party URLs, which helps us meet our needs.

Comprehensive data protection with photo prediction and compliance features
One area for improvement is the full feature support for Mac, which is currently in the roadmap but not yet available. The deployment process could be simplified as it is slightly complex due to the security solution requirement. The technical support needs enhancement, specifically customer service from Zecurion, which I would rate at eighty percent satisfaction.
