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.

Comprehensive data protection with photo prediction and compliance features
One area for improvement is the full feature support for Mac, which is currently in the roadmap but not yet available. The deployment process could be simplified as it is slightly complex due to the security solution requirement. The technical support needs enhancement, specifically customer service from Zecurion, which I would rate at eighty percent satisfaction.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"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."
"The fingerprinting technology is the solution's most valuable feature. It's unique to Forcepoint."
"I like that you can quickly create policies and enforce them in a matter of minutes."
"The solution’s content classification is the best."
"It was mostly stable."
"The product's configuration phase is easy."
"Forcepoint Data Loss Prevention has positively impacted my organization because we have managed to keep track of all the emails sent, all the data, and all the proprietary information that's shared, and everything is on a proper track, enabling everyone to classify their information so that nothing is leaked."
"Scalability-wise, I rate this solution a nine out of ten."
"The unique features of Zecurion DLP include photo prediction, which disables the ability to take pictures from a handset by activating the laptop camera for identification."
"I like the camera detection feature, which other DLP tools don't have. The content discovery is similar to other platforms like Symantec, using techniques like regular expressions. It's enough for my use case."
 

Cons

"Feature requests do take some time to implement."
"Usually for the biome of a small company, like 50 users, setup takes more than one week."
"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."
"The deployment and troubleshooting aspects of Forcepoint need improving."
"The setup is complex and has room for improvement."
"In terms of display, the support and the Mac platform requires a lot of improvement."
"Everything can be improved and maybe there is a way to improve the user experience through the interface."
"I'd like the data classification to be better."
"The deployment process could be simplified as it is slightly complex due to the security solution requirement."
"One area for improvement is the lack of pre-built rules for compliance in Indonesia, so I have to define rules myself."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is fine."
"The cost for the product for our use is less than $10 per user."
"The pricing and licensing fees could be improved."
"The solution is expensive."
"Forcepoint has been very cost-effective because they gave us a good deal while procuring the DLP solution."
"Pricing for this solution could be better."
"Forcepoint Data Loss Prevention is costlier than other brands, but not all. Of the solutions, I have used Forcepoint Data Loss Prevention is more costly."
"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."
"Zecurion DLP is cheaper than competitors like Symantec."
