Modifying rules for URL sandboxing

To modify rules for URL sandboxing:

Steps

  1. Click Edit.
  2. Under Default settings, select Analyze suspicious URLs.
  3. To allow the user to click through to the site after looking at the category of the Web page, select Allow the recipient to follow links to unclassified URLs.
  4. Links cannot be analyzed if Forcepoint Email Security Cloud does not recognize the network protocol used. Supported protocols are HTTP, HTTPS and FTP. To allow the user to click through to the site if it cannot be analyzed, select Allow the recipient to follow links with an unsupported protocol.
  5. If required, enter customized text to display in email messages instead of suspicious URLs, such as “Danger, do not click!”.
  6. Under Policy-wide settings, enter any trusted domains that you do not want to be inspected in email messages. Use this list with caution: if a site on the list is compromised, Forcepoint Email Security Cloud does not analyze the site and cannot detect the security problem.
  7. Define whether to analyze suspicious URLs contained in signed messages.
    Note: The options to allowlist domains and analyze suspicious URLs in signed messages apply to all users and groups in a policy, and cannot be over-ridden by exceptions.
  8. Click Submit.
