Acronis Advanced Data Loss Prevention

Acronis Advanced Data Loss Prevention (DLP) monitors and controls the flow of sensitive information across your organisation, preventing accidental or intentional data leakage through email, web uploads, messaging applications, removable media, and clipboard operations. In an era of remote work and cloud-first operations, DLP is essential for protecting intellectual property, customer data, and regulated information from unauthorised exposure.

The platform uses content inspection, context analysis, and user behaviour monitoring to identify sensitive data in transit. Pre-built classifiers detect common data types including credit card numbers, national ID numbers, medical records, financial data, and source code. Custom classifiers can be created using keywords, regular expressions, and document fingerprinting to protect organisation-specific sensitive information.

When a policy violation is detected, the platform can block the transfer, encrypt the content, alert an administrator, or log the event for audit — depending on the configured response policy. User notifications explain why a transfer was blocked, reducing friction and educating employees about data handling policies. The dashboard provides visibility into data flow patterns, policy violations, and risk trends across the organisation.

Xcobean implements Acronis DLP as part of comprehensive data protection strategies, typically alongside Acronis Cyber Protect for organisations with regulatory compliance requirements or those handling sensitive customer data. Our services include data classification, policy design, and user training.
