The Forcepoint solution suite provides four deployment modules to ensure consistent network security, email security, and data security. It can be deployed on enterprise-grade hardware or in cloud environments. Even with a hybrid setup combining on-premises and cloud services, Forcepoint continues to deliver powerful and highly effective protection.
More than 80% of hacker-related data breaches stem from stolen credentials. Basic authentication and authorization for users and devices cannot monitor behavior, nor can they control data once access has been granted. With traditional network-security methods, defending against attackers becomes nearly impossible—especially when they have already infiltrated a legitimate employee’s system and obtained authorized access.
Moreover, even high-performing employees can make mistakes that unintentionally cause data leaks, while disgruntled insiders may act with malicious intent.
Instead of trying to fully secure networks owned or managed by third parties, block every access point, or digest massive volumes of security alerts, the key lies in understanding user behavior across the board—employees, customers, and partners alike. By analyzing how they interact with data and systems, organizations can proactively assess and respond to the risks associated with their activities.
