Endpoint Protector by CoSoSys vs. Microsoft Purview Information Protection

Endpoint Protector [by CoSoSys] is well suited for an environment where a data loss prevention solution is required and many different operating system types are used. It is also well suited for an organization that has a need to deploy a solution quickly. Endpoint Protector is not well suited for companies that need to have an API or other integrations with other IT tools.
