- API
- Yes
- What users can and can't do using the API
-
Third parties that subscribe to the integration agent use a C-based API to send data to Forcepoint DLP for analysis and receive dispositions in return. The API can be used to configure analysis operations on a transaction-by-transaction basis on the following variables:
● Channel/Protocol - Upon installation the third-party product can declare its ability to intercept various protocols, and assign each transaction to a protocol.
● Blocking/Monitoring mode - each transaction can work in a different mode.
● Timeout - can be different per transaction.
The implementation of the API requires guidance from Forcepoint Professional services.
Forcepoint DLP also includes a reporting API that allows customers to work directly with incidents within the system, without having to leverage the product interface. - API documentation

Scaling
- Independence of resources
- Forcepoint has customers leveraging our DLP solution in the range of 50 to 400,000 end users. The solution scales easily. Adding more system modules to handle the load and resources to the manager allows it to scale. Proper sizing per environment, deployment of additional policy engines, Crawlers and addition of endpoint agents are methods of addressing service demand.
