Which feature of Sophos XG Firewall helps manage access to sensitive information?

Data Loss Prevention (DLP) is specifically designed to manage the access and transfer of sensitive information within a network. This feature helps organizations protect their data from unauthorized access and potential leaks, ensuring compliance with regulations and safeguarding critical business information. DLP operates by monitoring and controlling data flows, allowing network administrators to establish policies about what information can be shared and with whom.

For instance, DLP can prevent sensitive data, such as personally identifiable information (PII) or confidential business documents, from being sent through email or uploaded to unauthorized external sites. By identifying keywords, patterns, and the context of data usage, DLP provides the tools necessary to block, alert, or encrypt data transfers that violate established policies.

An Intrusion Prevention System (IPS) focuses on detecting and preventing unauthorized intrusions or attacks against the network, rather than specifically managing sensitive information. Application Control helps manage applications being accessed on the network, but does not address sensitive data directly. Web Filtering is essential for controlling internet access based on content, but again, it is not specifically designed to deal with the management of sensitive information in the same way that DLP does. Thus, DLP is
