This section lists the new features and enhancements for the Forcepoint DSPM solution included in the current release.

Secure Data Without Disrupting Workflows: Introducing File Stubs

File Stubs, is now available in Early Access. This feature helps you to maintain strict security while ensuring business continuity.

  • The Challenge: Sensitive files often appear in open locations. Moving them is critical, but broken links and user confusion can lead to workflow disruptions and IT tickets.
  • The Solution: With File Stubs, you can move high-risk files instantly and leave behind a placeholder PDF that informs users where the file has been relocated.

    Example: If financial files in SharePoint Online are publicly accessible, you can move them to a secure location. A PDF stub remains in the original location, displaying: “This file has been moved to [New Secure Location].” Users stay informed, and operations continue smoothly.

    What’s New

    • PDF Stubs: Automatically replace moved files with a templated PDF explaining the change.
    • Supported Sources: Supported Sources: AWS S3, SharePoint Online, and OneDrive. Additional sources coming in Q1.

    To use the feature:

    1. Select the sensitive files.
    2. Choose Move File.
    3. Check Leave a Stub File.
    4. Execute the move.

Quick Start Support for Setting Up Structured Data Sources

The Quick Start Guide is now enhanced to help streamline the initial setup of DSPM Structured data sources. This wizard now simplifies the process with fewer required options, an updated console, and the ability to select a connector and launch your first scan in just a few clicks. Once you complete the first few steps, it automatically navigates you to the data risk assessment report.

Support for Databricks Data Source Scanning (Structured Data Only)

Data Security Posture Management (DSPM) scanning for Databricks provides continuous, automated visibility into the sensitivity, exposure, and compliance posture of data stored and processed within your Databricks environment. By connecting directly to Databricks workspaces, the DSPM engine discovers tables, notebooks, file system paths, and associated metadata, classifies sensitive information using advanced detectors, and evaluates configuration risks such as permissive access controls, unsecured external locations, or misaligned storage policies. This end-to-end scanning ensures that security teams can quickly identify data at risk, track lineage, and enforce governance controls—strengthening the overall data security posture and enabling safe, compliant analytics at scale.
