Overall Satisfaction with Forcepoint CASB

The work from home model made the issue of remote security a bit complicated but it was quite easily resolved with this software. It is used to protect all the data in the cloud and avoids the leakage of vulnerable data. Any kind of suspicious activity is timely remedied because of the behaviour based security.

Pros

  • Web and content filtering
  • Behaviour-based live scrutiny
  • Integration with Forcepoint DLP
  • The cybersecurity database is quite wide and covers a variety of threats

Cons

  • A bit pricey as compared to other softwares
  • The customer service is quite lax so you're really on your own
  • The implementation process is a bit of a concern and is time-consuming
  • Behaviour-based live monitoring
  • Integration with Forcepoint DLP
  • Live diagnostics
  • It has made remote security accessible and easy
  • Allowed the prevention of data breach
  • It was quite complicated in the beginning and caused our team unnecessary stress
The interface of both the softwares is complex, but Forcepoint is certainly more complicated. But once you get past that, it is quite smooth and offers a lot of amazing features. It is one of the best options for remote security, although I would love to see more features - like encryption. The one place where it truly lacks is customer service, and since it has such an intricate implementation procedure, this one carries a lot of weight and needs to be improved to make this software even more accessible.

It is appropriate for medium to large-scale enterprises, especially the ones that have remote employees. The live-monitoring feature is extremely useful in this case. However, the implementation and initial processing are headache-inducing so you definitely need a dedicated IT team. Be warned though, that not only is their interface quite complex, their customer service is also extremely unhelpful so you won't be able to implement this or tackle any issues without a skilled team. But if that isn't an issue, this is definitely worth a try!
