Selected Answer: B
DLP systems are specifically designed to monitor and prevent the unauthorized transmission of sensitive and confidential data, such as Personally Identifiable Information (PII), both within and outside an organization. The alert about PII being sent via email is most likely to have originated from a DLP system, which is responsible for detecting and preventing such incidents and ensuring that data is handled in accordance with the organization’s security policies and compliance requirements.
