Agent for Data Loss Prevention for macOS supports only x64 processors (Apple silicon ARM-based processors are not supported).

Agent for Data Loss Prevention might be installed on unsupported macOS systems because it is an integral part of Agent for Mac. In this case, the Cyber Protect console will display that Agent for Data Loss Prevention is installed on the computer, but the device control functionality will not work. Device control functionality will only work on macOS systems that are supported by Agent for Data Loss Prevention.
