Upgrading Forcepoint DLP

Your data security product must be at version 8.7.x or higher to upgrade to Forcepoint DLP version 9.0. If you have an earlier version, there are interim steps to perform. See Upgrading to Forcepoint DLP 9.0

Important: Customers upgrading to Forcepoint DLP 9.0 from any version earlier than 8.8.1 that supports DLP Cloud Applications must connect to Data Protection Service to support the DLP Cloud Proxy, DLP Cloud API, and Cloud Data Discovery channels. To connect to Data Protection Service, request a JSON file with tenant information from Forcepoint Support. If your Data Security Manager is already connected to Data Protection Service, you do not need a new file or any additional action. For more information, see Configuring Data Protection Service in the Forcepoint DLP Administrator Guide.
