Size of user directory import

To support user-based policy and reporting, Forcepoint DLP imports entries from your user directory—such as Active Directory or Domino—into the Configuration Database. Depending on the size and design of your user directory, this can result in database space being consumed by entries that are not needed by Forcepoint DLP. To reduce the number of imported user directory entries:

  • Configure Forcepoint DLP to import entries from a more specific root context that is deeper in the tree than the directory’s root context.
  • Restrict the user attributes that are imported by specifying specific attributes to import; or eliminate them altogether by disabling the import of user attributes.
