Egress Monitoring: The process of continuously checking data leaving an organization’s network for the purpose of detecting and preventing unauthorized data transfer. Through egress monitoring, organizations aim to protect sensitive information from leakage, theft, or misuse by insiders or compromised systems. This practice is a critical component of a comprehensive data loss prevention (DLP) strategy.
