Senior Manager, Risk at LTFS
Quarantine workflows have shifted risk to business and provide strong PII protection across channels
Forcepoint Data Loss Prevention can be improved because the options nowadays involve the use of AI. The approach of Forcepoint Data Loss Prevention is still very traditional, where I have to create the policy for each and everything. The AI component is missing in Forcepoint Data Loss Prevention, where based on user behavior analytics, it could give us suggestions. This type of improvement is needed in Forcepoint Data Loss Prevention. Additionally, the hardware costing goes up when it comes to Forcepoint Data Loss Prevention because it requires large resources in the implementation part. Not regarding the user interface, but nowadays other DLP solutions have come up with the CASB part and the SaaS platform they are providing. Forcepoint Data Loss Prevention is still lagging there, and I have to rely on the on-premises setups. The management part has been difficult as I have to patch the servers, restart them, and regularly take backups. These are a few tedious things that I have to do while managing Forcepoint Data Loss Prevention. This part also needs to be improved in Forcepoint Data Loss Prevention.

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

"The built-in rules, templates, and content classifiers are among the most valuable features. Some of the built-in patterns are good places to get started with. Along with the phrases, they are helpful in putting together policies and fine-tuning our policies."
"I like that you can quickly create policies and enforce them in a matter of minutes."
"It is an enterprise grade solution and it has all the capabilities which one should have in a DLP including CASB, network DLP and email DLP."
"The real-time analytics feature is helpful. It alerts within seconds and promptly informs management of any potential security issues."
"The most valuable feature is the endpoint DLP. It's specific to copying to the USB or copying to the internal storage in our office."
"I did not experience any crashes. The solution has been stable in my usage."
"This solution has a great encryption feature."
"I like the SaaS solution they're offering now a little bit more. It's a new product but it's easy to install and configure."
"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."
"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."
 

Cons

"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."
"There is an admin and you have to monitor the solution all the time."
"They can improve a bit in the OCR category. The OCR deployment could be simplified."
"Customer service is slow."
"Forcepoint DLP is a bit expensive."
"It would be wonderful if the solution could develop more AI and machine learning capabilities. It would also be good if the solution was able to integrate with other ML and AI solutions. Right now, this is lacking."
"The solution's interface is still not user-friendly for some customers. So, its interface can be better."
"They can improve a bit in the OCR category. The OCR deployment could be simplified. Right now, you have to set up a separate server to manage all the data going through the network, especially the images. Forcepoint could better integrate the OCR component with central management."
"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

"This solution is quite expensive."
"The pricing and licensing fees could be improved."
"I prefer Forceoint because it is cheaper than Symantec."
"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 solution is expensive."
"There is an annual subscription model and the amount depends on the type of implementation."
"Forcepoint has been very cost-effective because they gave us a good deal while procuring the DLP solution."
"I rate the tool's pricing a six out of ten."
"Zecurion DLP is cheaper than competitors like Symantec."
