Data protection and feature-rich capabilities have improved with room for reducing false positives
Forcepoint Data Loss Prevention is a good product that provides deep fingerprinting capabilities in data exploring and data discovery. They have an excellent feature for discovering data automatically through policies available in their portal, and they excel in data discovery and classification. The solution offers database fingerprinting, file fingerprinting, and script-based policies, along with automatic data discovery exploration. Fingerprinting automatically discovers customer data in our database and, based on sensitivity, detects and blocks the data if someone attempts unauthorized access. Forcepoint Data Loss Prevention is a web threat security product offering content inspection and URL filtering with built-in DLP capabilities. It proactively identifies web-based threats using tools such as advanced classification, browser isolation, and malware detection. Forcepoint Data Loss Prevention's solution focuses on internal risks and monitoring user activity to identify abnormal behavior, offering forensic tools such as login and video replay to understand intent. Data classification is an advanced tool we have used for classifying our data. The main feature is AI-powered, called DSP. The classification capability leverages a distributed AI architecture feature and GenAI small language models to classify both structured and unstructured data. It supports 50 file types and continuously improves accuracy with user feedback, enabling auto-discovery across cloud, endpoint, and on-premises data stores without extra cost of repeated scans.

Email scanning and keyword monitoring improve compliance with data policies
Trend Micro DLP allows me to scan and monitor emails for specific words, ensuring compliance with data loss prevention policies. The DLP system captures keywords from email headers and subjects, and if those words are present, the DLP system operates accordingly. I also use DLP for monitoring data at rest, data in transit, and external devices.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"It was mostly stable."
"The technical support for the solution is very good."
"The GUI is very intuitive. That is the way I would explain its ease of use. It is straightforward."
"I like that you can quickly create policies and enforce them in a matter of minutes."
"With OCR and Risk Analysis, we are able to determine if anything sensitive is been shared. OCR helps us to safeguard those things and with risk ranking, we can determine which user is trying to violate policies multiple times even though they have been blocked to him or her."
"Before we implemented Forcepoint Data Loss Prevention, a lot of data had been exfiltrated and there were external sharings of data, and we didn't have much control over data with respect to any of the data storage techniques; however, post-implementing Forcepoint Data Loss Prevention, we were able to control the external sharing and exfiltration through email and the web channel."
"Some good features are basically its UAV Analytics engine. And even fingerprinting is really good in Forcepoint."
"The incident management and fingerprinting have been the most valuable features."
"The solution's initial setup process was straightforward."
"We are able to check the log and keep records."
"The most values feature of this solution are the micro DLP features."
"The basic setup, like configuring servers or deploying the SaaS platform and agent implementation, is straightforward."
"None of the Trend Micro Integrated Data Loss Prevention features worked well, but the solution had a straightforward setup."
"It is a scalable product."
"We find the initial setup to be very easy."
"We use Trend Micro mainly to monitor user activities, such as tracking the websites they visit and purchase items. Additionally, we focus on identifying and addressing antivirus threats. We used to explore a feature related to proxy but decided against it as an enterprise solution wasn't readily available for us. Our primary use of Trend Micro revolves around end-user security. Integration with Active Directory has proven beneficial, allowing us to easily push updates or changes directly from the console."
 

Cons

"An area for improvement in Forcepoint Data Loss Prevention is the complex UI and policy deployment. You have to find the policies, and then designing the policies is also tricky."
"There is no support for the Bangla (Bengali) language, so we cannot use the Forcepoint technology for Bangla documents."
"You have to monitor the solution all the time."
"Usually for the biome of a small company, like 50 users, setup takes more than one week."
"The policy update size and agent size could be improved. We would also like to have a proper solution for Linux OS which Forcepoint does not offer."
"I am really impressed by the interface and management console but the requirements are very high and the response time is too slow."
"The user-friendliness of the interface in formulating DLP policies could be improved. An example would be managing policies. It's a little daunting at first, and can be confusing, at times, when it comes to how to set things up and how to add policies. They could improve on that."
"Their discovery or the way they discover the data at risk can also be improved. There are many database servers that are not supported by Forcepoint."
"It's hard for me to answer any questions about missing features. It's the outside companies who support us that manage this DLP solution at this moment."
"Having more features apart from what the product was designed for is what I'd like to see in its next release."
"Trend Micro Integrated Data Loss Prevention is buggy, which is one area for improvement. I also found Trend Micro Integrated Data Loss Prevention support horrible, so that's another area for improvement."
"In Trend Micro Integrated Data Loss Prevention, there is a need to improve the plug-in manager, as it is an area with shortcomings."
"Needs a remote login option."
"I would like to provide improved network direction in order to regulate all of the user agents. We only use Trend Micro Data Loss Prevention to manage various threats and malicious user agents currently."
"Within the solution, many of the functions do not perform as intended...It is not a stable solution...It is not a scalable solution."
"The tool should improve its reporting functionality. We need a proper reporting feature in a DLP solution."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"One feature that I'm getting ready to take advantage of more is the ability to add more data crawlers to the DLP on-prem environment, without any extra Forcepoint costs or licensing needed for that additional data server. That will help in reducing the stress on the data server that we're using now."
"The pricing is reasonable. That's why we went with Forcepoint. They were pretty competitive."
"The pricing for Forcepoint Data Loss Prevention is more expensive than Symantec, but it's negotiable. It depends on how well you negotiate. The solution is worth the money, though, based on the services and facilities it provides to my company."
"Forcepoint DLP is a bit expensive."
"The solution is expensive."
"There is an annual subscription model and the amount depends on the type of implementation."
"They have to look at a different pricing structure for small to medium-sized enterprises because the cost is too high."
"I rate the tool's pricing a six out of ten."
"I rate the tool's pricing a three out of ten."
"It's not too expensive, especially when compared to SecureTech, and Forcepoint. It's actually cheaper. A license costs about INR 4,000 to INR 5,000, roughly $60 per license per year. In comparison, Forcepoint licenses are around $90 to $95."
"The licensing and pricing of Trend Micro are comparatively low and competitive since they are offered in a bundle, especially compared to Symantec, which was has a relatively high price."
"The platform is expensive. We purchase its yearly license."
"The client needs to pay for the Trend Micro Integrated Data Loss Prevention license on an annual basis."
"Trend Micro Integrated Data Loss Prevention is expensive compared to other solutions."
"It's relatively cheap so the pricing is okay."
"Price-wise, it is a cheap solution. I rate the solution's pricing a two on a scale of one to ten, where one is low, and ten is high."
