Technical Tip: How to enable DLP(Data Loss Prevention) UTM on firewall policy via the GUI

In the newer FortiGate versions, such as v7.4.x and v7.6.x, the DLP option is not available under Security Profiles and Feature Visibility to access from the GUI.

Solution:

To configure Data Loss Prevention UTM on FortiGate firewall policies, add /utm/dlp to the URL or IP address used to access FortiGate.

When multiple VDOMs are enabled, the VDOM name may need to be specified in the URL /utm/dlp?vdom=<vdom name>.

For example, the URL used to access DLP using the GUI is https://10.9.11.54/utm/dlp.

After that, the DLP option might not appear under Security Profiles in the firewall policy. The firewall policy can be edited via CLI to set the DLP profile.
