Traditional DLP vs AI DLP vs Hybrid DLP
Compare pattern-based DLP against AI Detection and NextGuard Hybrid mode. Traditional DLP uses Regex & Dictionary. AI DLP understands context and detects evasion. Hybrid combines both for maximum coverage.

How It Works โ NextGuard AI DLP Architecture
Aligned with Gartner Magic Quadrant leaders: Palo Alto Networks, Netskope, Forcepoint, Microsoft Purview
Layer 1 โ Pattern Engine (EDM + Regex)
- โฆ Regex patterns: HKID, Credit Card, IBAN, SSN
- โฆ Dictionary keyword matching (CONFIDENTIAL, SECRET)
- โฆ EDM: Exact Data Match against uploaded data fingerprints
- โฆ Sub-millisecond latency, zero AI cost
- โ Cannot detect obfuscated data (Jo&&@hn)
- โ Cannot decode Base64 / reverse text
- โ Cannot understand context or intent
Layer 2 โ NextGuard AI Engine (Private SLM)
- โฆ Private SLM โ data never leaves enterprise boundary
- โฆ Understands context, intent, and semantic meaning
- โฆ Decodes Base64, reverse text, leetspeak, homoglyphs
- โฆ OCR: reads PII from scanned images (JPG/PNG/PDF)
- โ Detects Jo&&@hn as "John"
- โ Catches contextual PII with no direct pattern
- โก 1โ3s latency (AI inference)
Layer 3 โ Hybrid + UEBA Risk Engine
- โฆ Pattern engine + AI engine run in parallel
- โฆ Results merged: union of all findings
- โฆ UEBA: User & Entity Behaviour Analytics risk scoring
- โฆ Risk-Adaptive Policy: auto-escalate AUDIT โ BLOCK
- โ Keywords ALWAYS enforced (Pattern)
- โ Evasion ALWAYS caught (AI)
- โ Zero blind spots โ strictest action applied
๐ Web Proxy (SWG) โ HTTPS Inspection (Netskope / Palo Alto / Zscaler)
A Secure Web Gateway sits inline between users and the internet. All HTTPS traffic is TLS-decrypted using a trusted enterprise CA, inspected for DLP violations, then re-encrypted and forwarded (or blocked). This is how Netskope SSE, Palo Alto Prisma Access, and Zscaler ZIA enforce DLP on web traffic without breaking encryption.
Use the ๐ Web Proxy panel above to simulate the full 7-step flow: Client โ TLS Handshake โ SWG Intercept โ TLS Decrypt โ DLP Inspect โ Decision โ Destination.
๐ค GenAI Prompt Protection (Forcepoint / Netskope / Microsoft Purview)
Employees pasting sensitive data into ChatGPT, Copilot, or Gemini is one of the fastest-growing DLP risks in 2025โ2026. NextGuard SWG intercepts the HTTPS POST to the GenAI API endpoint, inspects the prompt body, and blocks or redacts PII/credentials before they reach the AI model. No data ever leaves the enterprise boundary.
Select the ๐ค GenAI Protection category to try realistic ChatGPT/Copilot/Gemini scenarios with sensitive data.
๐ฌ EDM โ Exact Data Match (Palo Alto / Netskope / Forcepoint)
EDM fingerprints your actual sensitive data (e.g. employee HKID list, customer database) and detects exact matches โ not just patterns. A regex can match ANY 8-digit number; EDM only triggers on YOUR specific records.
Upload a CSV above to simulate EDM fingerprinting. The system hashes each record and checks if scanned content contains any of your specific data.
๐ค UEBA โ User & Entity Behaviour Analytics (Forcepoint / Netskope)
UEBA monitors user behaviour over time and assigns a dynamic risk score. A user who downloads 50 files before resignation is flagged as high-risk โ even if each individual file is clean. Risk-Adaptive Protection auto-escalates enforcement based on score.
The UEBA panel above simulates a user risk context. High-risk users have stricter policies applied automatically โ matching Forcepoint's Risk-Adaptive Protection and Netskope's UEBA module.
