Forcepoint

Forcepoint is a cybersecurity company that provides solutions to protect organisations against insider threats and external attacks. The company was founded in 2016. Forcepoint’s solutions are used by organisations of all sizes across a wide range of industries, including financial services, healthcare and government. The company has a strong reputation for delivering innovative and effective solutions that help organisations improve their cybersecurity posture and reduce the risk of data breaches.

Forcepoint is the leading user and data security cybersecurity company on a mission to protect organisations while driving digital transformation and growth. Its solutions adapt in real time to how people interact with data and provide secure access while enabling employees to create value. Forcepoint’s mission is to foster secure and trusted environments through a comprehensive security solution that understands digital identities and cyber behaviours to protect employees and critical data everywhere.

Data security is a never-ending challenge. On the one hand, IT organisations must keep up with regulations and protect data from targeted attacks and accidental exposure to intellectual property. On the other hand, they need to adapt to macro IT movements such as cloud application adoption, hybrid cloud environments, and bring-your-own-device (BYOD) trends, which increase the ways data travels out of your organisation.

The expanding attack surface poses the most significant challenge in protecting critical data. Data security teams take a seemingly logical approach to chasing data: find it, classify it, and audit it. But this traditional approach to preventing data loss is no longer effective because it ignores the biggest variable in data security: your people.

Forcepoint Data Loss Prevention (DLP) enables organisations to intuitively discover, classify, monitor and protect data with zero impact to the user experience. It audits behaviours in real-time with Risk-Adaptive Protection to stop data loss before it occurs. It enables you to secure your data across web, cloud, email, network and endpoint.

Instead of focusing only on data, security must begin and end with people. The key is to gain visibility into users’ interactions with data and applications. Once this is achieved, a level of control can be applied based on the risk level of a particular user and the sensitivity or value of the data. An organisation’s data protection programme should consider the human point – the intersection of users, data and networks.

Forcepoint DLP addresses human-centric risk with visibility and control wherever your people and data reside. Security teams apply user risk scoring to focus on the most important incidents and accelerate compliance with global data regulations.

Forcepoint Next Generation Firewall (NGFW) combines industry-leading security with fast, flexible networking (SD-WAN and LAN) to connect and protect people and the data they use across diverse, evolving enterprise networks. Forcepoint NGFW ensures consistent security, performance and operations across physical, virtual and cloud systems. It is designed from the ground up for high availability and scalability, as well as centralised management with full 360° visibility.

A unified software core enables the Forcepoint NGFW to assume multiple security roles in dynamic business environments, from firewall/VPN and ZTNA Application Connector to IPS and layer 2 firewall. Forcepoint NGFWs can be deployed in a variety of ways (e.g., physical, virtual, cloud appliances), all managed from a single console. Forcepoint uniquely tailors access control and deep inspection to each connection to ensure high performance and security. It combines granular application control, intrusion prevention system (IPS) defences, built-in virtual private network (VPN) control and mission-critical application proxies in an efficient, extensible and highly scalable design. Powerful intrusion prevention technologies decode and normalise network traffic before inspection and at all protocol layers to expose and block the most advanced attack methods.

• Enterprise-scale SD-WAN connectivity
• SASE/SSE Integration for web, cloud, custom application security
• Built-in IPS with anti-invasion defences
• Policy-oriented central administration
• High-performance decryption with granular privacy controls
• CASB and Web Security integration
• Anti-malware sandboxing
• Unified software for physical, AWS, Azure, VMware deployments

Forcepoint ONE is an all-in-one cloud platform that simplifies security. Forcepoint offers one platform, one console and one agent with many solutions. You can gain visibility, control access and protect data from a single set of security policies across managed and unmanaged applications and across all devices.

A single, unified platform, Forcepoint ONE allows a single set of policies to be managed across all applications through a single endpoint agent from a single console. Secure Web Gateway (SWG) combines Cloud Access Broker (CASB) and Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) to provide an all-in-one cloud service that protects access and data, and integrated advanced threat protection and data security to keep attackers out and sensitive data in. RBI offers additional capabilities such as CSPM for scanning public cloud tenants for risky configurations, CDR for content threat removal, and others.

Protect cloud and private applications

Give users easy access to the applications they need without exposing the rest of the network. Apply consistent threat protection and DLP across cloud and private applications to prevent malware and protect sensitive data.

Ensure security for any device

Consistently protect sensitive data used on managed and unmanaged devices with agentless or agent-based security from a single console.

Focus on risky traffic

Intelligently implement security as close as possible to the source and user, depending on the level of risk. Decryption, inspection and hardening only work to provide protection without impacting the user’s experience.

• Unified gateways for web, cloud and private application access and identity-based access control to managed business applications from a single location for SWG, CASB and ZTNA.
• Securely use private business web apps from personal devices while keeping sensitive data safe with agentless BYOD security for cloud and private apps.
• Advanced threat protection and data security integrated across all gateways prevents data loss and filtering and prevents hackers from infiltrating.
• Dynamic scalability with global reach with 300 PoPs built on AWS ensures fast, low-latency connectivity and 99.99% uptime regardless of where people are working.
