Physical security

All Forcepoint FlexEdge Secure SD-WAN components including SMC components and Secure SD-WAN Engines, whether in physical or virtual form factors, must always be setup in secured and access controlled physical premises where only trusted administrators can physically access the appliances running the platform components.

If appliances are to be in general office space, it is recommended to place appliances in a locked room or cabinet where access is available only to trusted administrators. Do not place platform components in public areas such as hallways, reception areas, or shared spaces where tampering risk is higher.
