Defining Resources

In a policy, administrators can define:

Data sources and destinations
(With some subscriptions) The endpoint device or application that may be used
The remediation action to take when a violation is discovered (such as block or notify)

In Forcepoint DLP, these are cumulatively known as resources.

Important: If no resources are defined, the policies and rules apply to all users, computers, networks, devices, and so on in the deployment.

Select a resource type to define on the Main > Policy Management > Resources page in the Data Security module of the Forcepoint Security Manager. Resources are grouped into 4 general areas: General, Cloud, Endpoint, and Remediation.
