Microsoft Purview DLP
- +Effectively included for organisations already licensed for M365 E5 Compliance
- +Native coverage of Exchange, SharePoint, OneDrive and Teams with no connectors to build
- +Policies follow the label, so classification and protection stay attached to the file
- −Coverage outside the Microsoft estate is thin — third-party SaaS and non-Windows endpoints lag
- −No on-premises option; inspection happens in Microsoft's cloud
Best for Microsoft-centric organisations whose sensitive data lives in M365
Watch out If material data sits outside Microsoft, this leaves real gaps
Trend Micro Integrated DLP
- +Adds DLP to an existing Trend Micro deployment without a new vendor
- +Reasonable cost where the endpoint agent is already installed
- +Good regional presence and support across Southeast Asia
- −Capability is narrower than dedicated DLP platforms
- −Best value only realised if you already run Trend Micro endpoint protection
Best for Existing Trend Micro customers adding basic data protection
Watch out Standalone, this would not make a DLP shortlist on capability alone
