GTB Technologies DLP vs Symantec IT Management Suite

GTB Technologies DLP monitors, classifies, and analyzes incoming and outgoing data transmissions to help prevent data leakage. The vendor says its Data AccuMatch and differential fingerprinting methods detect sensitive information in structured and unstructured content. Its SaaS offering includes discovery, real-time classification, and protection across endpoints and cloud services. Endpoint controls include application allowlisting and blocklisting, device control, and off-network detection. OCR detection is listed for network, endpoint, and discovery use cases. Deployment choices include GTB-hosted or customer cloud, on-premises, hybrid, and managed service on AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud. Listed integrations include HP ArcSight, Splunk, and LDAP, as well as cloud and business services such as Box, Google Drive, Office 365, Salesforce, and SAP. Pricing is available on request; the plan description says charges are not based on data volume. A 30-day trial is offered, with a GTB expert available to help with installation. GTB reports SOC 2 Type 2 attestation and a SOC 3 report; it says the SOC 2 report is shared under NDA. 32-bit Windows versions are no longer supported.

Symantec IT Management Suite manages application and operating-system configurations across desktops, laptops, and servers. It combines Asset Management Suite, Client Management Suite, and Server Management Suite, which can be licensed together or separately.
