# Endpoint Exfiltration Prevention

Nightfall supports exfiltration prevention in endpoint devices. The exfiltration prevention in endpoint devices prevents your organization's employees from exfiltrating data out of your organization. This feature is available for devices running on the macOS and Windows OS.&#x20;

To monitor each device for exfiltration, you must first install the Nightfall agent on the devices that require monitoring. You can install the Nightfall agent either manually on each device. Alternatively, you can also use an MDM to install the agent. Once you install the Nightfall agent, you must create policies to start the monitoring. Nightfall monitors the devices as per the policy rules set.&#x20;

You can learn about how to install the Nightfall AI agent for macOS/Windows OS and the process to create policies from the following links.&#x20;
