Security incident on recordAcquired by Netwrix 2023 — product roadmap under new ownership

Editorial verdict

CoSoSys Endpoint Protector has built the best cross-platform endpoint DLP in the category. Windows, macOS, and Linux are covered with genuine parity, which is a meaningful differentiator in mixed OS environments where most DLP vendors are Windows-first with limited macOS support and minimal Linux. The 4.7 out of 5 G2 rating from 320 reviews - the highest review volume and rating in the SMB DLP segment - reflects strong customer satisfaction.

Cloud SaaS DLP and network DLP are absent, and the Netwrix acquisition in 2023 introduces some roadmap uncertainty that buyers should address directly.

The verdict: CoSoSys Endpoint Protector is right for SMB and mid-market organisations with mixed Windows, macOS, and Linux environments wanting fast, affordable endpoint DLP. Enterprises needing cloud DLP, email DLP, or network DLP beyond endpoint should evaluate Netskope or Forcepoint.
