# Forward traffic to a proxy service for external inspection

In addition to inspecting traffic on the NGFW Engine, you can transparently forward traffic to a proxy service in the cloud or on premises. For example, you can forward all HTTP and HTTPS traffic to the Forcepoint Web Security Cloud service.

Web Security Cloud is a service that offers real-time protection against advanced threats and data theft. You need a separate license to use the service. For more information, see https://⁠www.forcepoint.com.

For more information and to learn about using EasyConnect services to forward traffic, see the document How to forward web traffic from Forcepoint NGFW to Forcepoint Web Security Cloud in Knowledge Base article 10582. Also see the Forcepoint Web Security Cloud documentation at https://⁠support.forcepoint.com/Documentation.
