Abstract

A computer-implemented method for data-loss prevention may include: 1) identifying data associated with a user, 2) determining that the data is subject to a data-loss-prevention scan, 3) identifying a data-loss-prevention reputation associated with the user, and then 4) performing a data-loss-prevention operation based at least in part on the data-loss-prevention reputation associated with the user. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.
