Add a cloud application in the Forcepoint Security Manager

For Forcepoint DLP to apply both DLP and discovery policies to Forcepoint CASB cloud application assets, the cloud applications must be listed and configured correctly in the Forcepoint Security Manager Cloud Applications resource list.

DLP Cloud Proxy usage requires that both existing and new Forcepoint CASB assets have a quick policy enabled and activated in Forcepoint CASB before they can be used within the Forcepoint Security Manager. For more information, see Configure Forcepoint CASB cloud application assets for Forcepoint DLP policy usage (mentioned below). This step is not required for DLP Cloud API and data discovery configuration, because new cloud application entries and settings can be configured directly in the Forcepoint Security Manager through the Cloud Application resource list using the following procedure:

  1. In the Forcepoint Security Manager, go to DATA > Policy Management > Resources > Cloud Applications.
  2. Click Add.
  3. In the Add DLP Cloud API Application window, select an available cloud application, then click OK.
  4. On the cloud application’s Properties screen, configure the cloud application settings.
  5. To deploy all the configured changes, click Deploy.

For information about configuring the API connection for the cloud application, see Configure the cloud application connection in the Forcepoint Security Manager (mentioned below).

For information about configuring the Cloud Data Discovery settings for the cloud application, see Configuring Cloud Data Discovery (data at rest) settings (mentioned below).
