Configuring the Forcepoint Web Security Cloud and Forcepoint CASB connection

Use the Protected Cloud Apps page to connect the service to your Forcepoint CASB account, to manage the applications that are protected, and to open the Forcepoint CASB management portal. When an end user accesses one of your protected cloud apps, the service forwards traffic to Forcepoint CASB for analysis, and CASB determines whether to allow the request or apply an enforcement action, based on your CASB configuration.

To protect cloud app usage via Forcepoint CASB:

Steps

  1. Navigate to Web > Settings > Protected Cloud Apps.
  2. Set the Enable connection with Forcepoint CASB toggle switch to ON.
  3. Enter the connection details:
    • The Access key ID created in Forcepoint CASB.
    • The Access key secret created in Forcepoint CASB.

      For more information about creating the key ID and secret, see Generate theAPI key for Forcepoint Web Security Cloud and Forcepoint CASB integration (mentioned below).

    • Service URL:
      • For the US Forcepoint CASB portal: https://my.skyfence.com
      • For the EU Forcepoint CASB portal: https://my-eu1.skyfence.com
      • For the UK Forcepoint CASB portal: https://my-uk.skyfence.com

        When you enter the Service URL, make sure you use https instead of http and do not add a slash (/) to the end. If you include the slash, the Service URL will not work correctly.

  4. Click Connect.
