What solution does IT configure to provide a warning system against unauthorized file copying?

Data Loss Prevention (DLP) solutions are specifically designed to protect sensitive data from being accessed, shared, or copied without authorization. DLP systems monitor and control data transfer and can identify when unauthorized attempts to copy or transmit sensitive information occur. They do this by analyzing the data, the context of its use, and the policies that have been established for handling that data.

DLP systems can provide real-time alerts when data is being copied in violation of these policies, allowing for immediate response to potential breaches or unauthorized activities. The effectiveness of DLP lies in its ability to enforce compliance with data protection regulations and organizational policies, making it a pivotal element in cybersecurity architecture dedicated to protecting data integrity and confidentiality.

In contrast, other options focus on different aspects of security. Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) detect and alert on unauthorized access attempts or anomalies in network traffic rather than specifically targeting data exfiltration. Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) systems aggregate and analyze security data from across an organization to provide a broader view of security incidents but do not directly interact with data protection. File Integrity Monitoring (FIM) focuses on monitoring files for unauthorized changes or alterations, which is a different concern than preventing unauthorized copying of files. Thus, DLP is
