Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"I am impressed with the tool's ease of deployment.""The main thing that I like about GTB is that it has a single agent for DLP and data classification. You can use the same agent. In terms of licensing too, it has a single license. When it comes to data classification, it supports open-source document platforms such as ChainSoft and OpenOffice.""The most valuable feature is we can develop what we want. If we have an old or new requirement, they are able to support us to develop it all within one month.""This solution helps classify what is confidential and what is not, allowing products to be installed at home if they do not contain confidential information.""The classifications in place are very helpful in making policies for ensuring sensitive data can be contained.""They have a fingerprint feature that is very awesome. OCR is very awesome to have too.""The product has a centralized console for everything."

"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 incident response options and reporting features are particularly strong, with the inclusion of Incident Classification Assessment (ICA) for integrated reporting.""What I like about Symantec Data Loss Prevention is the technical support it provides. It's good.""The detection capabilities are comprehensive.""The product helps with blocking sensitive data transmission and permission management.""Symantec Data Loss Prevention is the number one product in its field. It does its job well and it has all the necessary features. It is definitely better than any other solution on the market.""The most valuable feature of this solution is endpoint security.""The solution offers great reporting."

Cons
"The product needs to improve its support so that users can just log in and create tickets as opposed to sending emails. Sending emails is difficult to track. It also needs to work on its analytics platform.""The solution’s performance must be improved.""The performance could be better.""The solution could improve by providing additional availability requirements.""To stay competitive, they should expand to smartphones.""It would be great if they have information rights management (IRM) on the same agent.""They have a roadmap for the Linux platform and Mac as well, and in the next quarter, they might have patch management also for Windows. However, they don't have that much for Linux and Mac. So, we need those things in Linux and Mac as well."

"In the object capture recognition, which we implemented recently, there are a lot of false positives that have been happening.""Reporting could be improved.""Symantec could improve by being more creative and simplifying the functions. Additionally, the data protection should be bundled with data classification and labeling instead of them being separate.""We need to have agent auto-parsing.""There is room for improvement in the remote control capabilities of the DLP solution.""Sometimes setting up the solution can get a little tricky because it would depend on your internal infrastructure. For example, you have to connect the Symantec Data Loss Prevention platform and you need to integrate it, so that could make the process somewhat difficult.""Symantec could be better with infrastructure.""It is very difficult to log in to create a support ticket because no one is available to support our queries."

    Keeping sensitive corporate information safe and compliant has never been easy. But today, you’re faced with a totally new set of data protection challenges. Sensitive information is leaving the safety of your corporate network as more employees share files over consumer cloud storage services and access those files on their own mobile devices. The number of targeted cyber attacks continues to grow, as cybercriminals develop effective new methods for defeating traditional security measures and stealing corporate information. And as all of these factors converge, it becomes increasingly difficult to manage corporate information and protect it against loss and theft. 

    Symantec Data Loss Prevention (DLP) provides a comprehensive approach to information protection that embraces today’s cloud- and mobile-centered realities. With DLP, you can:

    • Discover where data is stored across all of your cloud, mobile, network, endpoint, and storage systems

    • Monitor how data is being used, whether your employees are on or off the network

    • Protect data from being leaked or stolen—no matter where it’s stored or how it’s used
