Frequently Asked Questions

India's Digital Personal Data Protection Act 2023 allows penalties up to ₹250 crore (approx. $30M USD) for significant breaches of personal data. Organizations are required to implement appropriate technical safeguards — DLP is a critical component of this requirement.

Yes. Cato DLP is built into the SASE platform and inspects both web traffic and SaaS traffic inline. Combined with CASB, it also scans data at rest in sanctioned apps like Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, and Salesforce.

Cato is a converged platform — DLP is part of the broader SASE/SSE subscription. However, you can start with just SWG + DLP for internet traffic (smallest footprint), and gradually expand to ZTNA, CASB, and EDR as your needs grow.
