Techniques presented herein describe data loss prevention (DLP) methods for saving a file to a destination over a network via an application, such as a productivity application having such features. A DLP agent injects components to the productivity application intercept save operations initiated by a user. When the user initiates a save operation for a file, the components suspend the operation and store a current version of the file (including unsaved file data) in a temporary location accessible to the DLP agent on disk. The DLP agent evaluates the current version of the file and file destination based on network and security policies to determine whether to allow or block the save operation.
