The logon application

The logon application runs on Windows and Mac clients and sends user logon information to Logon Agent for authentication.

  • In persistent mode (default), the Windows or Mac logon application sends logon information to Logon Agent at a specific interval (configured using the Query interval (persistent mode) setting in the Forcepoint Security Manager).
  • In nonpersistent mode, the Windows logon application sends logon information to Logon Agent only once for each logon. The entry remains in the user map for a specific interval (configured using the User entry expiration (nonpersistent mode) setting in the Security Manager).
