Creating Microsoft 365 application on Forcepoint ONE SSE

Setting up Microsoft Entra ID reverse proxy for Microsoft 365 starts with enabling the AzureAD RP cutoff method and selecting a AzureAD RP domain for the Microsoft 365 application in Forcepoint ONE SSE.

  1. Navigate to Protect > Policies page and select Microsoft 365 from your applications.

    OR

    click the green plus icon to add the application if you have not already.

    3. Select the AzureAD RP Domain option button adjacent to the domain name to assign the domain as the base of Azure AD Reverse proxy.
    4. Select the AzureAD RP option button as the Cutoff Method to restrict users from directly accessing Office 365 and to enforce users access the Office 365 applications only through the Azure AD reverse proxy method.
      By default, the Cutoff Method is set to None.

On successful DNS propagation, appears next to the DNS CNAME only if the DNS CNAME setup is validated via a DNS check.
    • SSL Certificate - Upload a certificate and private key for login-microsoftonline-com subdomain. The traffic from unmanaged devices is redirected through this reverse proxy URL. Refer to AzureAD Reverse Proxy Certificate to create SSL certificate. appears next to the SSL Certificate if a valid certificate and key for the domain specified on the page has the AzureAD Reverse Proxy checkbox selected.
