In a digital landscape where cyber threats grow more complex and insider risks rise in parallel, a traditional perimeter-based security approach is no longer enough. The modern enterprise demands smarter, adaptive protection that not only defends data but understands the behavior of the people accessing it. Enter Forcepoint, a global cybersecurity leader specializing in human-centric security solutions that align people, data, and systems in a zero-trust world.
Unlike legacy security vendors that focus primarily on infrastructure, Forcepoint puts human behavior at the core of its technology. With a unified platform that integrates data protection, behavior analytics, cloud security, and network protection, Forcepoint enables businesses to safeguard their most critical assets—without compromising productivity.
A New Security Paradigm: Human-Centric Cybersecurity
Traditional security models are designed around keeping bad actors out. But what happens when threats come from the inside? Or when a well-intentioned employee unknowingly exposes sensitive data? Forcepoint’s approach begins with a simple yet revolutionary principle: understand how users interact with data, and you can predict and prevent threats before they occur.
Key Features of Human-Centric Security:
- Behavioral Analytics: Understand normal user activity and detect deviations in real-time.
- Risk-Adaptive Protection: Dynamically adjust security policies based on contextual risk scores.
- Unified Policy Enforcement: Apply consistent policies across cloud apps, endpoints, and networks.
This modern model enables intelligent enforcement, where security adapts to risk—tightening when threats increase and relaxing to avoid unnecessary friction during safe interactions.
Forcepoint’s Core Solutions
Forcepoint offers an integrated suite of cybersecurity products designed to work seamlessly across cloud, on-premise, and hybrid environments. Let’s explore its major offerings:
1. Data Loss Prevention (DLP)
Forcepoint’s DLP solution is widely recognized as one of the most advanced on the market. What sets it apart is its risk-adaptive technology that understands user intent and adapts enforcement accordingly.
Key Benefits:
- Pre-built policy templates for GDPR, HIPAA, PCI-DSS, and more.
- Behavioral-based anomaly detection.
- Cloud-native deployment for scalability.
- Integration with Microsoft 365, Box, and other cloud apps.
Forcepoint DLP doesn’t just block activity—it understands it, enabling businesses to protect intellectual property without limiting access unnecessarily.
2. Cloud Access Security Broker (CASB)
With organizations increasingly moving to SaaS and cloud-based platforms, CASB solutions have become vital. Forcepoint’s CASB provides deep visibility and control over cloud usage.
Features:
- Real-time app discovery and shadow IT detection.
- Data classification and access controls across cloud services.
- Advanced threat protection using machine learning.
- Seamless integration with Office 365, Salesforce, Google Workspace, and more.
CASB gives enterprises the ability to embrace the cloud securely, knowing that sensitive data remains under control—even beyond the firewall.
3. Behavior Analytics & Insider Threat Protection
One of Forcepoint’s strongest differentiators is its User and Entity Behavior Analytics (UEBA). Using AI and machine learning, the system builds dynamic profiles for users and entities, identifying high-risk behavior before it leads to breaches.
How It Works:
- Tracks thousands of user signals (e.g., login time, file access, download patterns).
- Assigns risk scores to individuals and devices.
- Automatically escalates or blocks actions based on risk thresholds.
- Reduces false positives by focusing on behavioral context.
This makes Forcepoint a powerful tool for preventing insider threats, whether malicious or accidental.
4. Secure Web Gateway (SWG)
Forcepoint’s SWG provides advanced threat defense at the web level by filtering harmful content and blocking malware before it reaches endpoints.
Benefits:
- URL filtering and SSL inspection.
- Protection against phishing, malware, and command-and-control traffic.
- Granular access control by user, group, or device.
- Real-time threat intelligence through Forcepoint ThreatSeekerâ„¢ Intelligence.
The SWG helps organizations maintain safe and compliant browsing behavior across all users, devices, and locations.
5. Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA)
As part of the evolving Zero Trust Architecture, Forcepoint’s ZTNA offering ensures that access is granted based on identity, context, and continuous monitoring, rather than static credentials.
Core Capabilities:
- Microsegmentation and app-level access.
- Continuous risk assessment and policy enforcement.
- Elimination of VPN dependencies for remote access.
- Least-privilege access control.
ZTNA allows organizations to modernize remote access, ensuring users only access the applications and data they need—nothing more.
Forcepoint ONE: Unifying the Platform
Forcepoint has combined many of its capabilities into a single platform: Forcepoint ONE. This cloud-native Security Service Edge (SSE) solution unifies SWG, CASB, and ZTNA in one console with a common policy engine.
With Forcepoint ONE, enterprises can:
- Secure access to the web, private apps, and cloud services from anywhere.
- Apply consistent policies across environments.
- Gain centralized visibility and threat detection.
This simplifies deployment and eliminates security silos, giving enterprises a clearer picture of user behavior and threat exposure.
