What Is Acronis DLP?
Data Loss Prevention (DLP) watches how data leaves your endpoints — USB drives, printers, cloud uploads, messaging apps, personal email — and enforces policy on what's allowed, based on the content and context of each transfer. Acronis DLP covers 70+ leakage channels, with pre-built classifiers for regulated data: personally identifiable information (PII), patient health information (PHI), cardholder data, and documents marked confidential.
Traditional DLP's dirty secret is deployment: months of manual policy writing that's stale on arrival. Acronis' answer is behavior-based automation — the platform baselines your organization's actual data flows, generates policies from observed reality, and keeps adjusting them as the business changes.
Why It Matters
-
The Leak Is Usually Mundane
Not a hacker — a spreadsheet of client data emailed to a personal account, a departing employee's USB stick, patient records to the wrong printer. Policy-based controls stop exactly these.
-
Compliance Out of the Box
Pre-built GDPR, HIPAA, and PCI-relevant classifiers strengthen regulatory posture from day one — and better data controls can help with cyber insurance terms.
-
Evidence When It Counts
Centralized audit logs, alerts, and information-rich reporting turn "we think we're careful" into demonstrable control — for auditors, insurers, and incident investigations.
-
Part of the Platform
Same agent, same console as your backup and EDR — DLP without another vendor, another deployment, another dashboard.
