Quick answer

Trellix is a major enterprise data-security and threat-protection company — formed from the merger of McAfee Enterprise and FireEye — whose Data Loss Prevention suite is one of the most established and widely-deployed in the world, protecting 78% of the Fortune Global 500 and every US Department of Defense environment. Trellix DLP safeguards against intentional and accidental data leaks across the top threat vectors — endpoints, networks, email, web and cloud — all managed from the single Trellix ePolicy Orchestrator (ePO) console that enterprises have run for decades. The suite spans DLP Endpoint (now ‘Endpoint Complete’, protecting Windows and macOS with intelligent capabilities for non-text files, visual labels and web-form/AI-chat exfiltration), DLP Network (Prevent and Monitor), and DLP Discover (finding sensitive data at rest), with an OCR suite across all three, Data Encryption and Database Security alongside, and a new AI Data Risk Dashboard that stops sensitive data loss to sanctioned and shadow AI. For enterprises — especially those already running the Trellix/McAfee ePO platform — that want proven, endpoint-strong, centrally-managed DLP, Trellix is a benchmark, and TechBag is its India partner.

The portfolio

Six intel pages. One ePO console.

The data-security suite — every card is a complete intel page, across DLP Endpoint, Network and Discover, Data Encryption, Database Security and AI Data Security, all ePO-managed.

The flagship — endpoint DLPIntel page →

Trellix DLP Endpoint

Stop data leaving the device.

Trellix DLP Endpoint (‘Endpoint Complete’) protects Windows and macOS — controlling USB, print, copy/paste, cloud sync and more — with intelligent capabilities for non-text files, visual labelling and stopping exfiltration via web forms and AI-chat. The endpoint-strong core of the suite.

Windows + macOS, intelligentExplore
Network DLP — Prevent & MonitorIntel page →

Trellix DLP Network

Watch and stop data on the wire.

DLP Network (Prevent and Monitor) inspects data in motion across the network — email, web and other channels — monitoring and blocking sensitive-data transfers before they leave. With the OCR add-on for unstructured-data visibility.

Prevent + Monitor, OCRExplore
Data at restIntel page →

Trellix DLP Discover

Find the sensitive data you forgot.

DLP Discover scans file shares, repositories and endpoints to find sensitive data at rest — classifying it, remediating exposure, and giving you the ‘know what you have’ picture that accurate enforcement needs.

Data-at-rest discoveryExplore
EncryptionIntel page →

Trellix Data Encryption

Protect the data itself.

Full-disk and file/removable-media encryption — protecting data on endpoints and drives so that even if a device is lost or stolen, the data stays safe. Managed from ePO alongside DLP, for defence-in-depth data protection.

Database protectionIntel page →

Trellix Database Security

Guard the crown-jewel databases.

Database security — protecting the databases where your most sensitive data concentrates: monitoring activity, finding vulnerabilities, and defending against attacks and misuse, without the performance hit of native auditing.

Database activity & protectionExplore
AI — secure data in AIIntel page →

Trellix AI Data Security

Stop data loss to sanctioned & shadow AI.

The AI Data Risk Dashboard — monitoring and preventing sensitive-data loss to AI tools, with real-time visibility into sanctioned and unsanctioned (shadow) AI usage, high-risk activity across endpoints and networks, and centralized incident response. Data security for the AI era.

The thesis

Why “proven and ePO-managed” is the whole story

Data leaks through endpoints, the network and at rest — and enterprises need proven, centrally-managed protection. Trellix bet on endpoint-strong, ePO-managed data security — DLP, encryption and database protection in one console its customers have run for decades. It protects 78% of the Fortune 500.

01
The flagship

DLP Endpoint

Endpoint-strong DLP for Windows and macOS — controlling every device exit channel, with intelligent non-text, visual-label and AI-chat protection. The suite's core.

02
Motion + rest

DLP Network + Discover

Network DLP (Prevent/Monitor) for data in motion, and DLP Discover for data at rest — with an OCR suite across all three products.

03
Protect the data

Data Encryption

Full-disk and file/media encryption — so lost or stolen devices don't mean lost data. Defence-in-depth alongside DLP.

04
The crown jewels

Database Security

Protecting the databases where sensitive data concentrates — activity monitoring, vulnerability detection and attack defence.

05
One console

ePolicy Orchestrator (ePO)

The single management console enterprises have run for decades — managing DLP, encryption and more from one place. The operational anchor.

Start with your biggest data-exit channel — endpoint, network, data-at-rest, encryption or AI — all managed from the one ePO console.

Track 02 · Buying guides

Buy it like you’ve done this before

The procurement playbook TechBag runs with IT buyers — steps, licensing cheat-sheet, and the pitfalls that cost quarters.

01

Start with your data-exit channel

Devices (endpoint), network/email/web (network), lost devices (encryption), or AI? Trellix covers all. Name the primary channel first. TechBag scopes it free.

02

Value the ePO advantage

If you already run McAfee/Trellix ePO, adding DLP means one more capability in a console your team knows — a major operational advantage. Factor the existing platform in.

03

PoC on your real data

See Trellix DLP catch real policy violations on your endpoints and network — test the intelligent capabilities (non-text files, AI-chat exfiltration) on your environment.

04

Layer encryption + database security

DLP stops data leaving; encryption protects it on lost devices; database security guards the crown jewels. Weigh the defence-in-depth data-protection stack, all ePO-managed.

05

Plan compliance & the AI frontier

Map DLP + encryption to GDPR / India's DPDP / PCI / HIPAA, and scope the AI Data Risk Dashboard — AI data leakage is the fast-emerging risk. TechBag advises on India (DPDP).

06

Buy and run it via TechBag

TechBag is your local partner for licensing, ePO deployment, policy design, PoCs and support — GST invoicing throughout, with local DPDP expertise.

Five pitfalls that cost buyers quarters

1

Ignoring the ePO advantage (or lack of it)

Trellix DLP shines when you already run ePolicy Orchestrator — one console, one agent story. If you don't run ePO, factor in standing up the platform; if you do, that's a major advantage. Scope your existing estate honestly.

2

Buying endpoint DLP but missing network/rest

DLP Endpoint is strong, but data also leaves on the network and sits at rest. Skipping DLP Network and Discover leaves channels and troves uncovered. Scope the full suite for complete coverage.

3

DLP without encryption

DLP stops data leaving, but a lost or stolen device is a different risk — that's what encryption addresses. For complete endpoint data protection (and compliance), pair DLP with Data Encryption.

4

Overlooking AI data leakage

Employees paste sensitive data into ChatGPT and Copilot now — a channel classic DLP may not cover. The AI Data Risk Dashboard addresses it; if AI is in use (it is), scope it.

5

Under-scoping compliance mapping

Data security is usually compliance-driven (GDPR, India's DPDP, PCI, HIPAA) — buy without mapping DLP + encryption to obligations and you'll have audit gaps. TechBag maps Trellix to your regulatory needs.
