Quick answer
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.
Trellix DLP Endpoint
Stop data leaving the device.
Endpoint DLP for Windows and macOS: controls USB, print, copy/paste and cloud sync, and stops exfiltration via web forms and AI chat.
Trellix DLP Network
Watch and stop data on the wire.
Inspects data in motion across email, web and other channels, monitoring and blocking sensitive transfers, with an OCR add-on.
Trellix DLP Discover
Find the sensitive data you forgot.
Scans file shares, repositories and endpoints to find, classify and remediate sensitive data at rest, the picture accurate DLP needs.
Trellix Data Encryption
Protect the data itself.
Full-disk, file and removable-media encryption, so data stays safe if a device is lost or stolen. Managed from ePO alongside DLP.
Trellix Database Security
Guard the crown-jewel databases.
Monitors database activity, finds vulnerabilities and blocks attacks and misuse, without the performance hit of native auditing.
Trellix AI Data Security
Stop data loss to sanctioned & shadow AI.
The AI Data Risk Dashboard: visibility into sanctioned and shadow AI use, preventing sensitive-data loss across endpoints and networks.
Trellix XDR / EDR
Also in the portfolioTrellix’s XDR platform: detection and response across endpoint, network and email, built on McAfee and FireEye roots.
Trellix Email & Network Security
Also in the portfolioTrellix email security (FireEye heritage) and network detection — the broader threat-protection portfolio alongside data security.

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.
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.
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.
Data Encryption
Full-disk and file/media encryption — so lost or stolen devices don't mean lost data. Defence-in-depth alongside DLP.
Database Security
Protecting the databases where sensitive data concentrates — activity monitoring, vulnerability detection and attack defence.
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.

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.
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.
Value the ePO advantage
If you already run McAfee/Trellix ePO, DLP is one more capability in a console your team knows. Factor the existing platform in.
PoC on your real data
Watch Trellix DLP catch real violations on your endpoints and network, including non-text files and AI-chat exfiltration.
Layer encryption + database security
DLP stops data leaving, encryption protects lost devices and database security guards the crown jewels, all ePO-managed.
Plan compliance & the AI frontier
Map DLP and encryption to DPDP, GDPR, PCI and HIPAA, and scope the AI Data Risk Dashboard for AI data leakage.

The licensing cheat-sheet
| Product | Licensing model | How you enter | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|
| Trellix DLP Endpoint | Per endpoint / year | ~$46/endpoint/yr (est.) | Endpoint data-loss prevention |
| DLP Network + Discover | By scope / node | Network + data-at-rest | Full-channel DLP |
| Data Encryption | Per endpoint | Disk + file/media | Lost-device protection |
| AI Data Security | Subscription | AI data risk | Safe AI adoption |
Trellix DLP Endpoint starts around $46/endpoint/yr (est.); network/encryption/DB/AI by scope. TechBag models the ePO-managed mix and quotes in INR/GST.
Five pitfalls that cost buyers quarters
Ignoring the ePO advantage (or lack of it)
Trellix DLP shines if you already run ePolicy Orchestrator. If not, budget for standing up ePO as well. Scope your existing estate honestly.
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.
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.
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.
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.

Category momentum — estimated market growth
Illustrative CAGR synthesis**Directionally consistent with public analyst forecasts; verify exact figures before quoting. The takeaway: AI data security and data-at-rest discovery compound fastest — exactly where Trellix's AI Dashboard and DLP Discover are placed.
Securing data in GenAI
Pasting sensitive data into ChatGPT and Copilot is a top new leak vector, through sanctioned and shadow AI alike.
What it means for you
GenAI is a leak channel of its own; DLP must see prompts and uploads, not just email and USB.
Consolidation onto proven platforms
Enterprises consolidate security onto proven, centrally managed platforms, like Trellix’s ePO-managed suite.
What it means for you
One console for data security (ePO) is an operational advantage at scale.
Data-at-rest discovery
Finding and classifying data at rest (DLP Discover, DSPM) is now the starting point: you can’t protect what you can’t find.
What it means for you
Discovery is now foundational; scope DLP Discover, not just endpoint/network.
Endpoint DLP for macOS
As enterprises adopt more macOS, DLP that covers Windows AND macOS (Trellix Endpoint Complete) matters more.
What it means for you
Cross-OS endpoint DLP is now a real requirement; check macOS coverage.
India's DPDP Act drives DLP
DPDP Act duties to find, classify and govern personal data put DLP at the centre of Indian data security.
What it means for you
DPDP compliance is a major India data-security driver; scope it now.
OCR / unstructured-data visibility
Sensitive data hides in images and unstructured files — Trellix's OCR suite across DLP finds it where text-matching can't.
What it means for you
Unstructured-data coverage (OCR) closes a common DLP blind spot.
