Configuring TLS for a connection or route

Similar configuration is required for both the connections between Forcepoint Email Security Cloud and your MTAs, and between Forcepoint Email Security Cloud and the third party MTAs that you wish to communicate with using TLS. These settings and the options are described below.

Each rule relates to a specific inbound or outbound connection and specifies whether TLS is enforced, a certificate is required and should be verified, and the encryption strength. If an attempt is made to deliver an email and the specified criteria are not met, the email delivery fails and the sending MTA is notified.
