Microsoft Purview DLP** - If you're already on Microsoft 365/E5, start here and probably stop here. It runs inside the Defender agent you likely already have on Windows and macOS endpoints, classifies files and clipboard content, and covers Exchange, SharePoint, OneDrive, and Teams natively. For remote teams the big win is that there's no new agent to push to laptops you can't physically touch. The catch: coverage outside the Microsoft estate (Google Workspace, Slack, random SaaS) is weak, and you need the right E5 or compliance add-on licensing.\n\n**2. Nightfall AI** - My default for cloud-first/SaaS-heavy remote teams that aren't Microsoft shops. It's API-based, so it hooks into Slack, Google Drive, GitHub, Jira, Notion, and Salesforce without deploying anything to endpoints at all - which matters a lot when \"the team\" is contractors on their own machines. Strong on GenAI/LLM prompt leakage, which is where a lot of the real exposure is now.\n\n**3. Cyberhaven** - Best-in-class if your actual worry is people walking off with data rather than accidental leaks.
