CurrentWare Data Loss Prevention vs Lightcast

CurrentWare Data Loss Prevention is endpoint software for controlling device, website, application, and AI-tool risks while monitoring file transfers and retaining audit evidence in one console. Its agent monitors copying, pasting, printing, screen capture, and writes to removable media, including when endpoints are outside the corporate network. AccessPatrol can block, allow, or make read-only access for storage and connection types such as USB, external drives, SD cards, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, and mobile devices. File logs can include the user, machine, time, filename, and destination for files copied, moved, renamed, or deleted. BrowseControl and AccessPatrol can block transfers to unmanaged cloud apps. Endpoint clients support Windows, macOS, and Linux; the console can be hosted in CurrentWare Cloud or on a customer server. Plans list AccessPatrol (Standalone) at $12 a month, billed annual, and the Full CurrentWare Suite at $20 a month. A 14-day trial is available, but there is no free plan. Subscriptions include updates and direct support.
