What if I have 1,000 users who need to be protected by DLP. All of the users have access to a computer for work-related activities. However, only 800 of the users can send email and access the Internet; the other 200 users cannot send email or access the Internet (blocked by a proxy server). How many licenses of Network Monitor, Network Prevent for Email, and Network Prevent for Web do I need?

You will need 1,000 licenses of Network Monitor, Network Prevent for Email, and Network Prevent for Web. DLP for Network products are licensed per Managed User. A Managed User is anyone who has access to a network that is managed, monitored and/or protected by DLP. It doesn’t matter whether the person has access to email and web. What matters is the potential risk of that person leaking confidential data over the network that is protected by the software. Therefore, the number of licenses required is based on total number of employees or networked users.
