New features
This release of the product includes the following new features. For more information, see the Forcepoint ONE SSE Admin Guide.
Cloud SWG vPoP
Forcepoint ONE SSE now support Virtual Points of Presence (also known as VPoP) to improve content localization for Cloud SWG customers.
When the Forcepoint ONE SSE end users access websites, those websites localize traffic to the country of the Cloud SWG datacenter and not the country where the end user is located. Forcepoint’s VPoPs will solve this localization issue using patent-pending technology to emulate localization for over 100 countries worldwide.
To understand the Cloud SWG vPoP feature in detail, refer to Cloud SWG vPoP IP addresses.
Exporting Logs to AWS S3 Bucket
Forcepoint ONE SSE provides an option to export logs of your tenant from the Forcepoint ONE SSE data lake onto your own AWS S3 bucket using Amazon S3 Access points.
To know how to export logs of your tenant, refer to Exporting Logs to AWS S3 Bucket.
Moved RBI Profiles from Forcepoint ONE SSE to Remote Browser Isolation application in Platform
Forcepoint ONE SSE deprecated the page and moved all the existing RBI Profiles that you have created under the page in Forcepoint ONE SSE to the RBI Profiles page in the Remote Browser Isolation application.
To create RBI Profiles in the Remote Browser Isolation application, select Remote Browser Isolation from application waffle and navigate to the RBI Profiles page. Refer to RBI Profiles to know in detail.
Exporting Devices list
Forcepoint ONE SSE now enables you to export the list of SmartEdge devices linked to your tenant in .csv format from the page. You can use this information for auditing, deprovisioning, and other compliance purposes.
Cloud SWG Explicit Proxy
Forcepoint ONE SSE provides you the ability to enforce Cloud SWG policies simply by forwarding traffic from known locations (branch offices) using the host PAC file and a Certificate for SSL decryption, without requiring a SmartEdge agent.
To know about Cloud SWG Explicit Proxy in detail, refer to Configuring explicit proxy.
SWG Policies - URL categories limit
While configuring SWG policies, you should select maximum of 50 URL categories per policy rule. If you add more than 50 categories per policy rule and click OK, then the Please limit your entry to 50 URL categories or fewer to proceed successfully. error gets displayed.
You can avoid this error by creating two or more policy rules within SWG policy, with each policy rule having 50 or fewer URL categories.
To know about SWG policies in detail, refer to Configuring SWG policies.
