Microsoft Security Partner
Security and information-protection expertise
By accident or by design – sensitive data finds a way to leak.
Every business runs on sensitive information. Customer lists, payroll, financial models, M&A plans, regulated personal data, intellectual property. Every business also has people who legitimately need access to that information to do their job — and that’s exactly where DLP becomes essential.
DLP makes sure that what should stay inside actually stays inside. Whether someone tries maliciously, or accidentally pastes a wrong email address, or just doesn’t realise that file shouldn’t have left the system — we build the controls that catch it.

FAQS
Common questions
A few of the questions we get asked most often.
What is Data Loss Prevention (DLP)?
Data Loss Prevention (DLP) is a set of technologies and policies that stop sensitive information – such as personal data, financial records, or intellectual property – from being leaked, lost, or misused. DLP identifies and classifies critical data, then monitors and controls how it’s shared across email, cloud, and devices.
How does ICT Solutions deliver DLP?
ICT Solutions implements DLP using Microsoft Purview across Microsoft 365, discovering and classifying sensitive data, then applying policies that block or flag risky sharing. ICT tailors rules to each organisation’s data and obligations, monitors violations, and refines controls – protecting information without disrupting legitimate day-to-day work.
How is DLP relevant to Maltese businesses?
Maltese firms in finance, iGaming, and professional services handle large volumes of regulated personal and financial data under GDPR. DLP directly supports compliance by preventing leaks and demonstrating control, while a local partner aligns policies with Maltese regulatory expectations and internal governance.
