Proofpoint Enterprise Data Loss Prevention (DLP) Likes & Dislikes

Like

Email DLP is by far the easiest of the DLP products to set up and maintain, Endpoint DLP is a little more involved to setup but also has a bunch of SOC related features that can be pretty helpful. CASB takes the most time to setup, and the cloud API options are limited to mostly the most well known apps.
