My main use case for Forcepoint ONE is SWG and CASB.

For my use case of Forcepoint ONE, we protect our data on the browser using SWG by granting or denying access to users based on web reputations, URLs, and category-based URLs, and we can restrict access if any user downloads something malicious through scanning. For CASB, we have integrated our Office 365 with CASB to protect our sensitive data shared with other users from Office 365 mail and Teams.

Forcepoint ONE essentially prevents or secures our users from accessing public domains without hesitation, ensuring that we scan all activities.

The best features that Forcepoint ONE offers are RBI and CDR in SWG.

RBI helps me specifically by removing all the malicious JavaScript codes from websites that users might visit, allowing them to access the URL without encountering the actual malicious codes. Regarding CDR, when a user downloads malicious executable files or something injected with malicious codes, CDR assists by creating the same package with other files, effectively removing the original malicious content.

I love the features of SWG and RBI because they secure our users by removing JavaScript and malicious file codes, particularly since many attackers employ codeless or fileless patterns or signatureless attacks. Additionally, if any user is uncertain about any data or its origin, CrowdStrike anti-malware sensors scan it for us. CDR is crucial as it protects our end users from unknown third-party files, ensuring the authenticity of shared files.

Forcepoint ONE has positively impacted our organization by providing visibility through CASB, caching user activities, and preventing threats by guiding users to the correct cloud services like Office 365 instead of blocking access to more vulnerable services.

Forcepoint ONE can be improved with better guidance on token implementation for ease of use.

While implementing Forcepoint ONE has been very smooth and efficient, the proof of concept phase can be slow, particularly on S3. It would be beneficial for end users if performance improves during this stage.

I have been working in my current field for three years, so I have three years of experience.

Forcepoint ONE is very stable.
