Identifying users

Once you have completed the initial setup, a single policy applies enforcement to all traffic from your organization’s egress IP. In order to implement per-user or per-group policy enforcement, Forcepoint Web Security Cloud must identify specific users. User identification also allows the service to log individuals’ internet usage and provide user-based and group-based reporting.

This section discusses the options available for registering users with the service and identifying users when they access the proxy.
