Managing Custom Configuration

The Custom Configuration feature allows administrators to broaden the existing configuration capabilities in endpoint profiles.

You can enable or disable the custom configuration in the endpoint profile by toggling the Enable custom configuration checkbox in the Custom Configuration tab of an endpoint profile.
Note:
  • This feature is available starting with Forcepoint Security Manager (FSM) 10.3.
  • This feature requires F1E and is not currently supported by the F1A agent.
  • Detailed instructions for using this setting will be featured in an upcoming Knowledge Base Article.
  • This feature is only available for the administrator role with Manage custom configuration permission. To add Manage custom configuration permission to the role, navigate to Authorization > Roles, select the Manage custom configuration checkbox under Manage endpoint profiles in the Deployment section.


To enable the custom configuration, do the following:

Steps

  1. Select the Enable custom configuration checkbox.
    By default, the Enable custom configuration checkbox will be disabled.
  2. Enter the configuration text in JSON format into the JSON Editor to define the custom configuration for the DLP administrator.
    When a user attempts to save a configuration containing incorrect format, an error message 'Custom configuration JSON format is invalid' will be triggered by the JSON Editor.
    Note: Custom Configuration can override the existing Endpoint Profile configuration. If you decide to override, ensure that the changes are applied correctly.
  3. Click Save & Close.
