Every feature on ASM is probably going to be in competition with someone somewhere. If you contact your sales rep he can likely show you how we are competitive with various other vendors. They will also be best able to go over your needs and explain to you how the ASM fits into your environment.

 

You can view the deployment guide here: https://www.f5.com/pdf/deployment-guides/microsoft-exchange-2016-dg.pdf

 

As fair warning, though, Data Loss Prevention is not the primary purpose of the ASM. The ASM is a web application Firewall, and is intended to protect your Exchange Server (or other HTTP server) from malicious traffic. It does have features to prevent accidental exfiltration of sensitive data (dataguard), but this is not the primary feature of the product.
