Cyberhaven
- +Traces data lineage rather than only matching content, so it catches transformed and renamed files
- +Materially fewer false positives than pattern-matching approaches
- +Investigation workflow shows the full path a file travelled
- −Cloud-delivered with no self-hosted deployment
- −Younger vendor with a smaller install base and less independent analyst coverage
Best for Organisations where intellectual property leaves via transformation rather than obvious copying
Watch out Assess vendor maturity and support depth alongside the technology
Zscaler DLP
- +Inline enforcement at internet scale with minimal latency impact
- +Natural fit where Zscaler already handles web and private access
- +Exact data match and indexed document matching are available at higher tiers
- −SaaS only, with inspection performed in Zscaler's cloud
- −Value depends heavily on already routing traffic through the Zscaler platform
Best for Enterprises already standardised on Zscaler for secure access
Watch out Standalone value is limited — this is a platform module rather than a product
