### "Closed a Security Gap Nicely" — 5.0/5

> **Nels** | *25 November 2020* | Printing | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: DLP tools all have the ability to find sensitive data resembling: SSN, credit card \#s, financial account \#s. &#10; But what about sensitive data that DOESN'T match the cliche template?&#10;&#10;Forcepoint DLP has the ability to find sensitive data that is easily user-defined by keywords, and in specific context for example.  This functionality is difficult to find, with the only viable alternate product costing almost 3x the price.
> 
> **Cons**: The console GUI isn't as intuitive as I would like, and there are a few double negative concepts that are difficult to understand when apply policy or policy exceptions as the example.
> 
> Data leakage happens.  Fantasies of 12-inch floppy disk hackers and 300 baud modem bandits aside, data leakage and loss occurs unintentionally from users doing small things they shouldn't do, which culminate into the potential for huge problems.  Forcepoint DLP not only puts a stop to this leakage, it also runs scheduled scans on endpoints for leaked data and provides scripted abilities to return that data to its rightful location or quarantined locations.
