First off, Acronis DeviceLock DLP is a best-of-breed enterprise data loss prevention solution (enterprise DLP solution) that is designed exclusively to prevent data leakage at the endpoint layer. It is not an appliance, antivirus, or limited module that you might find in other “endpoint security” protection suites.

Acronis DeviceLock DLP has no required hardware elements that wouldn’t already be in place, which significantly reduces the typical costs of implementation and maintenance.

Historically, Acronis DeviceLock DLP evolved as a solution with every necessary feature to prevent data leakage through peripheral devices and ports. Now, compared to competitive port-device control solutions, Acronis DeviceLock DLP has the most features to meet the challenge. Acronis NetworkLock and Acronis ContentLock add-on components advanced the product into the class of fully-featured enterprise DLP solutions by incorporating the most commonly used network channels using the most effective techniques of content analysis and filtering.

With the integration of the user activity monitor in Acronis DeviceLock in 2020, the solution implements another differentiating feature – allowing you to record user on-screen actions, keystrokes, and running processed, based on DLP-related events.

The ability to try the solution before buying it is another important competitive distinction of Acronis DeviceLock DLP. Having nothing to conceal from existing and potential customers, we stick to the principle of total transparency by providing a freely available trial version for 30 days.

Another important distinction of Acronis DeviceLock DLP is the host-resident optical character recognition (OCR), which allows for more thorough content-aware controls not only in network, but also in local channels and for endpoints outside the corporate network.

Moreover, for network communications, Acronis DeviceLock DLP is the only DLP solution that employs deep packet inspection (DPI) with an universal-application, and web browser-independent controls of user communications via most network protocols and applications. These include SMTP, HTTP/HTTPS, WebDAV, FTP(S), Telnet, as well as Torrent-based P2P file sharing. NetworkLock uses this DPI technology to detect the protocol and application type regardless of the network ports they use.

Another advantage of Acronis DeviceLock DLP is that all modules are pre-integrated and deployed “sight unseen” with the core platform with module-based licensing that allows for the ability to phase desired modules of the DLP solution into the environment when ready by simply turning licensing on and configuring settings. This reduces the costs and labor contribution to both the initial rollout and ongoing maintenance.
