Configuring the redirect for Forcepoint Web Security On-premise

Forcepoint Web Security customers configure the redirect to Forcepoint RBI through the Forcepoint Security Manager.

There are two options to redirect user web traffic to Forcepoint RBI:

  • Block and Confirm redirect: This option requires that the user confirm the web traffic redirect. When Forcepoint Web Security detects web traffic to specific configured web categories, it opens a block page in the user's web browser. To view the website, the user clicks a confirmation button on the block page to redirect the web traffic through Forcepoint RBI.
  • Automatic redirect: This option redirects the web traffic without intervention by the user. When Forcepoint Web Security detects web traffic to specific configured web categories, it automatically directs the web traffic through Forcepoint RBI. There are no confirmation steps or block pages in this option.
Note: Both options assume that the Confirm and Quota actions are not currently used in the policy. The procedures in this section override the existing Confirm and Quota capabilities.
Note: Log traffic entries are shown as Blocked with confirm option or Blocked by quota in Forcepoint Security Manager, not Forcepoint RBI
