Currently Forcepoint Web Security is used to monitor and protect 50,000 users for a large state agency. This is used to keep our employees protected from emerging threats as well as controlling non business related web requests filtered to ensure safety and compliance.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Very good filtering and deep packet inspection for SSL
ICAP support for Data Loss Prevention
Protection of Web email Channels for loss.

Cons

Complex Management require full time
Better license model, too much like Cisco with multi licenses.

Return on Investment

Business productivity increased due to lessening "play" time on the internet
Better security posture with Forcepoint.

Alternatives Considered

Cisco IronPort Web Security Appliance

Forcepoint Content Gateway was surperb in every way over Cisco Web Security Appliance and provided better protection with better customization.

Likelihood to Recommend

Of all the proxy products I have tested Forcepoint is on top, better than Cisco Web or Blue Coat.
