Symantec Data Loss Prevention is completely designed for the enterprise area because it enables great segmentation. For example, if you have four branches in different cities of Turkey, you can create different detection servers. You can create a detection server for the endpoint of location one, create a web detection server to detect all web data loss, and create all these servers for each location and user sets, computer sets.

The discover options are very different, and you can discover what's happening in your network and file servers. We had a case where a banking company not using Symantec Data Loss Prevention lost 500 customer information pieces and their personal credit notes through screenshots. A malicious actor created reports for different 500 people, not taking the PDF file of the personal report but instead taking first credit note page screenshots, stealing all data via screenshots. When this case occurred, I suggested there must be a detection method for images because Data Loss Prevention solutions must analyze the details of all images. Initially, Symantec created an OCR module, and they are now fully capable of searching what's inside images.

When discussing this with DLP customers, they asked about bank robbery scenarios involving credit notes and whether Symantec could detect this. I wrote this concern to product development at Symantec. Many engineers wrote to Symantec HQ about this issue, and subsequently, they added the feature.

I am primarily using Symantec Data Loss Prevention for MIP labels, sensitivity categorization, and securing data such as confidential PAN card and Aadhaar card numbers. I also use it for keywords matching tied to customer-specific project codes and email policy configuration as per project requirements.

We used Symantec Data Loss Prevention for security purposes, mainly to handle confidential data and protect it from external interventions.

The use cases depend on the industry. The use cases for the telecommunication industry and manufacturing industry are different. Typically, the tool is used for data loss prevention.

Symantec Data Loss Prevention (DLP) is highly effective in safeguarding sensitive data in cloud storage. Its granular features allow us to tailor implementations according to specific use cases and customer requirements.

We use Symantec DLP because we have different kinds of users who have been moving around for the mobility of their work, they work either from office, home or other offices. So the encryption of this solution supports us in controlling the data within the organization and not getting any data breached. 

Symantec DMP is for preventing the loss of data from any part of the network, for example, from the network to the core of the data. It has many props, or as it's called in Symantec DLP, "detection servers." There are many detection servers, such as prevention servers and discover servers. Although they can be installed on one server, they can also be deployed on many servers, and they will prevent data leakage in a powerful manner.

We use the solution to prevent it from data leakage.

We use the product to mitigate the malicious attack and prevent data loss for specific servers.

It's important for information security due to the fact that it's a powerful solution. It defines sensitive secret data on the customer's environment and monitors for any breaches.

The primary use case for this solution is ensuring compliance. Organizations that handle sensitive data find it crucial to implement a data loss prevention solution to prevent unauthorized data breaches.

We use Symantec DLP for endpoint, network, and storage data loss prevention. Symantec DLP is deployed across multiple locations and departments, covering around 10,000 users. 

I use Symantec Data Loss Prevention since it is a product that is currently involved in an API-level integration with Google Chrome while ensuring that users get to avail some advanced features in the current version of the solution, making it an overall good tool.

Our customers mostly use it for data discovery, content monitoring, and policy enforcement.

Symantec Data Loss Prevention is an enterprise-level solution and we utilize it for its customization, and flexibility across the platform as well as the excellent support and feature levels compared to other similar solutions.

We have some sectors that have sensitive data, and for that reason we use  Symantec Data Loss Prevention. We have some policies on those sectors so that if somebody uses an ID number or some other sensitive number, we record it in our system.

We use DLP to monitor network traffic and prevent sensitive data from being exfiltrated outside of the company. Symantec also helps us discover data at rest in an environment that may be sensitive. The solution covers more than 10,000 users across various business units and layers, including endpoints, networks, and storage.

We primarily use the solution to follow a process that's already come in. If anyone takes a snap of anything, we can see that. Anything sent through email, uploaded to a drive, or shared to a public drive can be extracted by the DLP agent. 

Our company is a partner and deploys the solution for customers as a management server and email network.

We use this solution for exact and index data matching, vector machine learning and endpoint prevention. We can use USB, make the solution notify a block policy and make response rules. It allows us to add the directory indication, make the agent configuration from the DLP, and then enforce them.

We can also complete different types of single-tier, two-tier and three-tier installations. For single-tier installation, it can enforce or recommend detections servers on the same servers. For two-tier, it can enforce on the same server and the detection server. And for three-tier, Oracle enforced, and the detection server is on separate servers.

We use Symantec Data Loss Prevention mostly for preventing and protecting against email threats. The tool tracks internal to external emails. Whatever attachment there is that's moving from internal to external is also tracked. If someone's sending a file, it would also be forwarded to the team lead or manager. The password for signing into the email should not be shared because when shared, it will be blocked. We have configured these policies in Symantec Data Loss Prevention. The tool also tracks whenever a user transfers data from one machine to another. These are our use cases for it.

The main usage of Symantec DLP is concerned with its baseline performance. Also, from my experience, their support SLA seems slower compared to Forcepoint.

Our primary use case for Symantec Data Loss Prevention revolves around addressing internal data security concerns, particularly email communication and data leakage prevention.

The use case for Symantec Data Loss Prevention depends on the requirements, for example, customer requirements and needs. Overall, the solution is used for identifying data and handling exact data matching criteria.

We are using Symantec Data Loss Prevention for protecting IPs and intellectual properties.

We have several use cases, the main one is probably the prevention of prohibited files from being uploaded. I'm a user of this product and a network engineer. 

The tool helps to block based on different classifications such as characters and channels. 

We are managed service provider and system integrator. We have different deployment models and scenarios for different customers, but usually, we deploy Symantec Data Loss Prevention on-premise.

Our clients that are using Symantec Data Loss Prevention have massive use of documentation and they are supporting the digital signatures happening now everywhere. They wanted to secure this information with the solution.

We typically add another solution with Symantec Data Loss Prevention from Titus. It is used for data classification, allowing us to have the DLP and the data classification in one offering.

Where we are so far deployed is into the financial sector and in telecom, and they want to evaluate what kind of information users are usually trying to touch, which they're not supposed to be touched. They want to see that analysis. If there are any outflows, they want to mediate that as well - especially if there is any breach on the team.

Symantec Data Loss Prevention is used for endpoints to protect users from data leaks.

I am using the current version.

I am an L2 engineer. I'm doing the part of the implementation and the agent upgrades. If any requirements come in for Oracle upgrading we go forward and make it happen. Apart from that, we are doing agent installation and troubleshooting. 

Moreover, we'll be in contact with the SCCM team, and give packages to them. They will push the package to all the machines for the SCCM. We can connect to the virtual team and do the other lines for server backups or upgrades. 

I use it in my own environment for data loss prevention.

I installed it for testing purposes. I've logged some of my data through different policies. However, I've only done this at the endpoint channel, not on, for example, email channels.

We use it for data loss prevention.

The product has enterprise-level use cases. The product protects the endpoints and the network. I mostly worked on endpoints and networks.

In Pakistan, this solution is used mainly in the banking sector for protecting the credit card payment industry. Our clients are generally small businesses. We are partners with Symantec and I'm the manager of information security. 

We primarily use the solution in order to detect the exfiltration.

The primary use case of this solution is for data loss prevention and confidential classification for internal public architecture.

We are trying to prevent the data loss of sensitive files that are confidential, and not let them out of the organization's control.

We work in the banking field. We deploy data loss prevention. Our branch protects our clients' data, credit card numbers, account numbers, and other confidential and sensitive data.

The solution is primarily used for the prevention of data leakage mostly from email and external drives or thumb drives. It's also used for setting certain policies.

We use this solution for development source code security.

I am a consultant, and this is one of the solutions that I help to implement for my customers.

We primarily use the solution for the endpoint machines within the environment.

Our primary use case for this solution is to protect data from being stolen from the company. It protects and monitors data that moves out without us knowing about it. 

The primary use case is for handling confidential data, such as customer data, employee data, and IT confidential information. We used this solution in some contracting work. We classify the data by assigning each division user their own classification, e.g., confidential, restricted, internal, or public. According to the data we get from the customer, we find fairly unique keywords and common words from the data and we put it on the Symantec DLP engine as a use case or policy. If, for example, the content or classified files cannot leave the organization, I can turn the use case into a policy as keywords mentioning specific data and unique keywords in the documents. This restricts documents from leaving the organization. That's how I create a policy based on the use case.

We use this to protect our client's data. They are China Mobile, China Unicom, and China Telecom.

We are only using the security part of it.

We are solution providers. We suggest this solution to our clients for data loss prevention. It also can prevent Trojan and virus attacks on data centers.

The primary use case is to protect the content our data, e.g., if a document is marked as a confidential, it should not suddenly be sent into the Internet via email.

I have been the product for two years.

The solution is pretty stable. They are not bad; they are pretty complete. But I'm not a big fan of Symantec.
