When Symantec DLP Might Be Better

Symantec DLP suits comprehensive enterprise scenarios:

  • Full enterprise DLP: Need endpoint, network, storage, and cloud DLP coverage
  • Existing Broadcom stack: Already invested in Broadcom/Symantec products
  • Storage scanning: Need to discover and classify sensitive data at rest
  • Network monitoring: Require deep packet inspection for data in transit

Perguntas Frequentes

Is Symantec DLP still actively developed?

Yes. Broadcom acquired Symantec Enterprise in 2019 and continues to develop the DLP product line.

Can Symantec DLP protect AI prompts?

It can block data transfers to AI websites via web proxy policies, but cannot sanitize prompt content.

How do pricing models compare?

Symantec DLP uses enterprise Broadcom licensing. anonym.legal offers a free tier and plans from €3/month.

Does anonym.legal scan stored data?

No. anonym.legal focuses on real-time PII anonymization. For data-at-rest discovery, Symantec is designed for that.

Which is easier to deploy?

anonym.legal deploys in minutes. Symantec DLP requires server infrastructure, agents, and extensive policy configuration.

Does anonym.legal offer zero-knowledge auth?

Yes. Argon2id + HKDF. Password never leaves your device.

Who built this

A small team of engineers and lawyers built this.

We ship from Europe and work in the open.

Our founder note spells out why we started.

Where to start

How the parts fit

A browser add-on cleans text inside Chrome.

A Word plug-in handles drafts in Office.

A small desktop tool works on whole folders.

An agent protocol link feeds large models safely.

All four share one core engine and one rule set.

Words from our team

We started this work after a lunch about cookies.

One friend kept getting odd ads on her phone.

We asked why a court file leaked through a draft.

We sketched the first build on a napkin that week.

By month three we had a tiny demo for a friend.

She used it on her first case the next day.

Common questions we hear

Can the tool read scanned PDFs? Yes, with OCR.

Does it work on long files? Yes, in small chunks.

Can I roll my own rule set? Yes, save it as a preset.

Does it run offline? The desktop build runs offline.

Do you keep my files? No, the cloud build wipes after each run.

Will it learn from my work? No, we never train on inputs.

A short tour of the workflow

Upload a file or paste a snippet of prose.

Pick the entities you want gone from the draft.

Choose a method: replace, mask, hash, encrypt, or redact.

Press run and watch the side panel show each hit.

Skim the result and tweak any rule that misfired.

Save the cleaned file or send it to a teammate.
