Configuring the Web Content Gateway module

There are two Web Content Gateway module options available for Forcepoint DLP.

  • The one included with Forcepoint DLP Network provides DLP over the web channel including encrypted SSL content. This core Forcepoint DLP component permits the use of custom policies, fingerprinting, and more.
  • The one included in Forcepoint Web Security provides SSL decryption, URL categorization, content security, web policy enforcement, and more. In this deployment mode, the gateway is limited to the web DLP quick policies.

When either Web Content Gateway option registers with the management server, the Web Content Gateway module appears on the Settings > Deployment > System Modules page.

To configure the Web Content Gateway module, select it on the System Modules page. The Edit Content Gateway page opens with the General tab selected. See Edit Content Gateway: General tab.

Note that Web Content Gateway modules include a policy engine and secondary fingerprint repository. To configure these components for a Web Content Gateway module, expand the module on the System Modules screen and click the component. See:
