The inline workflow of Nightfall DLP for Gmail is depicted in the following image.

• The end-user uses either a Web email client, a Desktop email client, or a Mobile client to draft and send the email from your domain.

• The Email sent via Google email server is routed to Nightfall.

• Nightfall scans the email as per the defined policies defined and adds headers to the emails.

• Nightfall then relays the emails with updated headers back to Google email server from where they are sent to intended recipients on behalf of the organization's domain.
