Forcepoint DLP Reviews

Forcepoint is used as a web proxy across the vast majority of the organization. The DLP product is used to monitor how and when people attempt to print, store or share data with potentially unauthorized parties. The DLP product is then used to warn people about the potential impacts that such behavior has.

Forcepoint DLP is used enterprise-wide at my company. We have the agent installed on every desktop/laptop that we own. Its primary usage is to stop data loss via USB storage devices. Being a financial company, we are very concerned about data loss from internal employees. Forcepoint has been able to help us track the movement of data to USB drives and block them.

Forcepoint DLP is being used across the organization to identify and locate ePHI on disk and in transit via email.

It is used across our whole organization. It is helping us prevent unauthorized disclosure of member data.

Forcepoint Data Loss Prevention is used across the organization. As a financial institution it is imperative that we take steps to insure customer data and ensure that when sensitive data leaves the organization it is done in a secure manner for sound business purposes. Forcepoint DLP is one of the tools we use to flag attachments and messages that may contain customer PII or proprietary information. Mistakes happen, so educating users is not an adequate preventive control.

My organization uses Forcepoint Data Loss Prevention across the organization to address PHI stored in the organization. The use of Forcepoint DLP has helped us discover the actual location where PHI resides and how the user shares the PHI. We are able to set a threshold on the amount of PHI to share externally and it will trigger the alarm to the administrator for further review.

The IT department implements and manages the product, and it is deployed across the environment.

We use Forcepoint DLP across the whole organization in the US and China. We are in the health insurance industry and need to be compliant with PCI, HITRUST, HIPAA, etc. Forcepoint DLP enables us to protect sensitive information.

It's being used across the whole organization. The main purpose is PII data loss prevention.

Although I am not part of the original team that implemented the Websense/Forcepoint system I have made large scale changes to improve upon its efficiency and resolve performance issues due to incorrectly deployed parts of the system. My overall experience has been good. Forcepoint has come a long way with their product and the features being made available over the next couple of versions are exciting and needed. The Forcepoint team has been very good to work with and they have shown remarkable improvement in customer service and technical support.
Forcepoint is being used as our Web Security and DLP solution and that is across the whole organization.

We currently use Websense to protect our web and data security channels. We have a number of Websense proxies deployed world wide protecting users in both large and small offices. Using Websense allowed us to add security to our internet bound traffic while securing our IP and keeping our bandwidth costs down from users browsing non-work related sites.

We are using Websense mostly for it's Malware and Spyware filtering. We do little URL filtering but the filters that have put in place have been very effective. We use Websense through out the entire enterprise of our company this includes UK and Asia. It has cut down on the time spent by PC technicians have to remove Spyware, malware and adware on our users PC. This has also cut down on time spent on reloading pc that were infected as well.

Hi, I'm Bruno Lafrenier, Senior IT Datacom Specialist at the IRB. Websense was used to monitor and control some access to the Internet. It was used across the entire organization.

a) It's being used for web security and monitoring and filtering the traffic. Also Websense is used as web caching and proxy server.
b) It's being used globally.
c) Managing the Security policies

Websense is used in implementing endpoint DLP, as a content gateway, a web filter, a URL filter and also e-mail security. It provides real-time scanning of websites and caching both of which are really important features to us at our organization. Overall [it's] easy to navigate (user-friendly) and has a UI with a few issues here and there, but still we are happy with the product.

Websense Data Security Suite was used to monitor users to detect transmission of company confidential documents. The DSS solution was fairly successful in this effort and helped us to detect many violations of our corporate policies. The cautions for this product are scalability and reliability. The DSS product seems to have issues scaling above 8000 to 10000 nodes.

Two Websense appliances are installed onsite and at our co-location to filter Citrix users and onsite users. We leverage the hybrid filtering service for the users in our satellite offices worldwide. We had plans to filter protocols, however, policies were never implemented for this use so we still only monitor their use.

Websense is deployed corporately to provide content filtering and inspection of end user web traffic. The business had asked IT for more visibility into what users are doing on the internet and to block categories of site deemed inappropriate.

We use Websense for Internet traffic filtering, email spam filtering, and DLP. It is used in all offices of our company; from the headquarters in Chicago to a remote office in Hong Kong. It blocks spam and compromised and unproductive websites for our users. If we don't want sensitive data to leave the company, we can also fingerprint data to be used by the DLP endpoint.

Websense Data Security Suite is used by our customers who want to protect large amounts of intellectual property and other proprietary information. We have seen it implemented in single departments who have specific business needs and across entire organizations who are using it to protect everything from intellectual property to electronic healthcare records to credit card data.

Websense was implemented to protect the organization from external and internal internet abuse. It successfully cut down on desktop issues, prevented pop-ups and prevented internal issues of internet abuse. In the end it it gave the CEO and IT relief as the cost of the product more than paid for itself in reduced support of desktops. We used it across the whole organization as an internet proxy.

We test drove other products but they just did not compare in terms of reporting, ease of use and out of the box categories.
