I feel like WAF policies are too broad. Better to focus on specific apps with CASB.

I feel like DLP is more about preventing data loss rather than blocking unauthorized apps, so I'm leaning towards option B as the best approach.

I'm not entirely sure, but I think enabling WAF policies might not be enough if the data is already being shared through those apps.

Hmm, I'm not sure if creating an alert in the SIEM is the best approach here. That might just flag the issue after the fact, rather than actually preventing the data from being shared in the first place. I'd lean more towards the CASB or WAF options.

I think the key here is to focus on the CASB and prevent unauthorized web applications from being used. That seems like the most direct way to address the root cause of the problem. I'd go with option B.

Okay, I think I've got it now. The CASB seems like the best solution to enforce a policy and block unauthorized web applications. That way, we can proactively prevent the data from being shared, rather than just reacting to it after the fact. I'm going to go with option B.
