Forcepoint ONE could be improved in terms of scalability to better support hybrid environments, as many organizations still operate partially on-premises while gradually moving to the cloud. Enhancing its ability to handle such mixed setups would make migrations smoother and adoption easier. Additionally, customer support could be strengthened by prioritizing enterprise license holders and addressing critical issues more promptly, ensuring faster resolution and a more reliable overall user experience.

I believe that Forcepoint ONE could be improved when configuring certain policies; for content filtering, when trying to whitelist or blacklist certain domains, you can only do up to about 50 domains or URLs, which is a limitation that could be addressed. Additionally, the administrating portion is quite messy in the sense that there are multiple places that need to be changed in order to reach one particular goal, so streamlining this could be much better. They could take example from their current tools, which are their cloud proxy as well as the on-prem proxy, to use as a baseline.

There is room for improvement in making the reporting closer to real-time, ideally around five or ten minutes instead of half an hour. The interface could also be updated as it was quite dated.

I have some requirements that the solution cannot currently fulfill. For example, I need control over access to web WhatsApp, which the solution cannot resolve yet. Additionally, I need to control specific functionalities within certain applications, like preventing the transfer of certain file types. This requirement is not yet resolved.
Areas for improvement for the platform include addressing scalability and architecture concerns, especially for large deployments involving more than 500 or 1,000 users. Additionally, integrating sandboxing features directly into the solution, either on-premise or in the cloud, is crucial for comprehensive threat detection and response. It would eliminate the need to rely on third-party sandboxing solutions, streamlining security operations and enhancing overall efficiency and effectiveness in combating threats.

We encounter challenges in determining whether certain features for blocking certain file types or preventing automatic downloads are functioning correctly. These particular areas need improvement.

Bitglass integration with some IDP providers needs improvement. Currently, the solution is not compatible with Azure AD for third-party authentication. The fraud proxy in the SmartEdge agent is not compatible with Forcepoint DLP or a web hybrid agent. I would like the developers to consolidate multiple agents across systems for better integration.
One area for improvement in Forcepoint ONE is that you'll need more training to install the solution yourself. I practiced in a laboratory and I needed more technical information to do the installation.
