Configuring Risk-Adaptive Protection to use Forcepoint Behavioral Analytics

To use Risk-Adaptive Protection with Forcepoint Behavioral Analytics, go to the Settings > General > Services page. Select the Risk-Adaptive Protection tab, and then:

Steps

  1. Mark the Enable Risk-Adaptive Protection check box.
  2. Enter the following settings:
    • The Forcepoint Behavioral Analytics hostname or IP address.
    • The Port number. The default port number is 9093.
  3. Click Test Connection to test the Forcepoint Behavioral Analytics connection to Forcepoint DLP. A confirmation message returns.

    If connection fails, enter again the Forcepoint Behavioral Analytics hostname or IP address and the port number; then test again.

  4. Click OK to save the changes.
  5. Click Deploy.
    Note: If you already defined Forcepoint DLP rules to determine actions by user risk level, disabling this option (by clearing the Enable Risk-Adaptive Protection check box) disconnects Forcepoint Behavioral Analytics from Forcepoint DLP and actions are determined only by DLP matches.
