FAQ: Migration from Forcepoint Stand-Alone Cloud DLP to Forcepoint Data Security Cloud | DLP

This FAQ is intended for customers transitioning from Forcepoint stand-alone cloud DLP to the integrated Cloud DLP.

1. What changes with this migration?

   You can now access Cloud DLP and Dynamic User Protection through the Forcepoint Data Security Cloud. Your data, policies, and existing functionality remain the same. No additional cost applies.

   Use the following URL format to access the service:

   https://<yoursubdomain>. app.forcepoint.io

   If you do not already have a Forcepoint Data Security Cloud tenant, ensure this domain is added to your bypass list.

   Note: If you already have a Forcepoint Data Security Cloud tenant, Cloud DLP will automatically be associated with your existing tenant.
2. Do I need to migrate data?

   No. You do not need to perform any migration steps. Forcepoint manages the migration process. Your existing data, policies, and configurations remain available after the migration.

   Sign in to the Forcepoint Data Security Cloud using your platform URL. From the left navigation panel, select DLP under Applications to access all DLP menus.

   Admins receive an invitation email to set their Forcepoint Data Security Cloud password.
