DLP in Forcepoint Web Security and Forcepoint Email Security

  • With the DLP Module for Forcepoint Web Security, content on web channels is analyzed without the need to purchase a separate Forcepoint DLP subscription or a protector appliance.

The web channels covered by the DLP Module include HTTP, HTTPS, FTP, and FTP-over-HTTP. This allows administrators to prevent posts to websites, blogs, and forums as well as FTP sites.

Note: If the Forcepoint Web Security Cloud services license is displayed on the Subscriptions page, it refers to the Data Protection Service integration with the Forcepoint Web Security Cloud solution. This integration is not related to the Forcepoint DLP integration with the Forcepoint Web Security on-premises deployment solution.

The supported channels for the Data Protection Service integration with Forcepoint Web Security Cloud are: HTTP, HTTPS, and FTP over HTTP.

  • Forcepoint Email Security includes data loss prevention over email channels. A separate Forcepoint DLP subscription, agent, or protector appliance is not required.
Note: Neither the Forcepoint Web Security DLP Module nor Forcepoint Email Security includes all of the options presented in this Help document. For access to other options and channels, talk to your Forcepoint account representative about purchasing a full Forcepoint DLP subscription.
