A DLP agent, incorporating a DLP submission tool, receives information of an outbound data transfer by the client computing system. The DLP agent can temporarily block the outbound data transfer and send a request to update a DLP policy to protect the information before permitting the outbound data transfer. The DLP agent subsequently receives receiving an indication that the DLP policy is updated to protect the information. After receiving the indication, the DLP agent permits the outbound data transfer.
