What is Forcepoint DLP?

Forcepoint DLP promises to address human-centric risk by providing visibility and control everywhere your people work and everywhere your data resides. Security teams apply user-risk scoring to focus on the events that matter most and to accelerate compliance with global data regulations.

The vendor promises these benefits:
  • Accelerate compliance
  • Empower people to protect data
  • Advanced detection and controls that follow the data

RESPOND AND REMEDIATE RISK
Traditional approaches to DLP overload users with false positives while missing data at risk. Forcepoint DLP applies advanced analytics to correlate seemingly unrelated DLP events into prioritized incidents. Incident Risk Ranking (IRR) provided with Forcepoint DLP fuses disparate DLP indicators into a framework of Bayesian belief networks to assess the likelihood of data risk scenarios, such as data theft and broken business processes.

VISIBILITY EVERYWHERE YOUR PEOPLE WORK, CONTROL EVERYWHERE YOUR DATA RESIDES
Today’s enterprises are challenged with complicated environments, where data is everywhere and requires the protection of data in places that aren’t managed or owned by the enterprise. Forcepoint DLP for Cloud Applications extends analytics and DLP policies to critical cloud applications so your data is protected, wherever it resides.

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.
  • It does a great job at stopping users from going to "infected" sites and sites that are undesirable.
  • It has a great range of flexibility and features. We have used it to lock down a server "production" computer that need only a limited amount of access to internet sites. It allows us to also filter by user/group/domain and even IP address or range.
  • Implementation was a little rough but once the product is up and running it is very stable.
Cons
  • Websense could do some improvement in the Support group. Long wait times and long times for follow-up.
  • Working with the support center and the sales engineers has been a little rough. We ran into problems where the support group did not understand how the sales engineer set up our design.
  • It would be also helpful if that you could sort in the knowledge base on just your current version you are running.
During the setup and design make sure that they have other companies using the same model and design that you are using. We ran into a big disconnect on this issue due to our configuration and working with Websense Support.
  • The biggest impact that Websense has resolved for us was our PC technician times on having to deal with computers with Malware and Spyware on them.
  • It allowed us to have control over our "production" computers so that users where not surfing internet or installing stuff on these computers.

Websense gave us the best flexibility for our enterprise configuration and setup. It all does not take up anything on our computers when we use Websense one armed off our firewalls and routers. We found this very easy to set up and transparent to our users and network. The sales team understood our questions and problems and was able to come up with a solution that worked for our company.
We have been fairly happy with the product and how it has worked. We have looked at other vendors for url filter and such and have not found one that meets our needs or does what we have been doing with Websense. The product has been fairly stable and we have only had a few issues in the past. We have all seen that it was one of the highest leaders from the Gartner Group Magic Quadrant for Web Gateways.
  • Setup was very easy
  • Creating groups and access was easy
  • Setup of filters and custom for our groups.
  • The only real problem we have had is working with sites that are blocked with no reason why it was blocked. Working with the "Testlog Server" could be set up easier.
Product is very customizable and easy to setup and change on the fly.
