Where is a DLP solution generally installed when utilized for monitoring data in transit?

A.
Network perimeter
B. Database server
C. Application server
D. Web server

Correct Answer: A

Explanation:

Explanation: To monitor data in transit, a DLP solution would optimally be installed at the network perimeter, to ensure that data leaving the network through various protocols conforms to security controls and policies. An application server or a web server would be more appropriate for monitoring data in use, and a database server would be an example of a location appropriate for monitoring data at rest.
