CompTIA Security+ (SY0-701) — Question 120

Which of the following tools can assist with detecting an employee who has accidentally emailed a file containing a customer’s PII?

Answer options

• A. SCAP
• B. NetFlow
• C. Antivirus
• D. DLP

Correct answer: D

DLP (Data Loss Prevention) is specifically designed to monitor and protect sensitive data, such as PII, from being sent outside the organization. The other tools, while useful for different aspects of security, do not focus on preventing the unauthorized sharing of sensitive information through email.
