Step 1: Configure Data Protection Service in Forcepoint Security Manager

Data Protection Service connects to both Forcepoint DLP in the Forcepoint Security Manager and Forcepoint Email Security Cloud in the Cloud Security Gateway Portal, or cloud portal.

Each of these steps requires you to upload the configuration file provided by Forcepoint in the fulfillment email you received. This file provides the information needed to connect both products to Data Protection Service.

Important: Make sure you update your subscription before connecting to Data Protection Service. If you connected first, the new license is not reaching Data Protection Service. To resolve this issue, follow the instructions provided in the Knowledge Base article “Failure to deploy a subscription XML to Data Protection Service after subscription change.”
