1. DLP (data loss prevention) is an approach to computer security where a specialized system detects and prevents data breaches by monitoring sensitive data while it's in use.

2. DLP (data level parallelism), also known as data parallelism, a technique for parallelizing data across multiple processors. It is achieved when different processors (or different threads on a single processor) perform the same task on different pieces of distributed data.

3. A DLP (discrete logarithm problem) is a problem in mathematics that is important in public-key cryptography.

4. DLP (Digital Light Processing) is a digital projection technology created at Texas Instruments in 1987, which uses an optical semiconductor known as a digital micromirror.
