What is the Risk-Managed Data Loss Prevention Strategy course about?
Many organizations deploy DLP tools in isolation, without integrating risk assessment, user behavior modeling, or hybrid infrastructure complexity. This leads to alert fatigue, policy drift, and coverage gaps , especially when employees shift between networks, devices, and locations. The result is a false sense of security and increased exposure during transitions.
