DLP, DMAC, or SPF

If it comes to embracing one email-focused protection solution or another, what is best for an organization?

Many orgs solely deploy DLP for email due to an enterprise DLP purchase; however, does this protect against spear phising, whaling, or spamming?

Not really, especially if your DLP deployment is in its infancy.  With that said, email protections like DMAC & SPF will not work to prevent data loss without some type of content & context-aware solution (e.g., classification, labeling).

Thankfully, email-as-a-service (EmaaS) cloud providers include both services, while usually as an add-on service at an additional cost.
