Off-site user self-registration

If you are not sending directory service data to the hybrid service (in other words, if you have not enabled Directory Agent), users must self-register in order for their requests to be handled correctly when they are off site (outside a filtered location).

In order for users to be allowed to self-register, you must first identify the domains associated with your organization on the Web > Settings > Hybrid Configuration > User Access page in the Forcepoint Security Manager (see Configure user access to the hybrid service).

Users connecting to the hybrid service from outside a filtered location are prompted to enter a user name and password, or to register. To register with the hybrid service:

1. The user provides a name and email address.
2. The hybrid service then sends a password to the user via email, along with a link that can be used to change the password.
3. The user clicks the link, and is prompted to enter the password.
4. Registration is complete.

When registered users connect to the hybrid service from outside a filtered location, they enter their email address and password. The hybrid service then applies your organization’s Default policy to their Internet requests.
