Secure Web Gateway
SWG makes the web safe – and fast – for everyone, everywhere.
Your gateway to working safe and fast
Most SWGs are sluggish, forcing web traffic to make a pit stop to decide if the final destination is safe. With Forcepoint SWG, decisions are made on the endpoint - allowing users to go straight to known good (safe) sites. When a site is in doubt, traffic can be inspected in cloud. Or, for Zero Trust protection, traffic can be isolated with Forcepoint RBI.
Security that doesn’t get in the way of work
A truly on-device SWG
Fast: Surprising speed with peer-to-peer partnerships
Flexible: Automatically scales up or down with traffic needs
Reliable: 99.99% uptime since 2015
On-device SWG
Because it’s on device, Forcepoint SWG follows your workforce wherever and however they go to work. It decrypts and inspects traffic locally on each device, forgoing the need for on-premises appliances, VPNs, network hops and cloud proxies. With SWG’s on-device agent, remotely wipe company data from managed devices. On-device protects your employees on-site or remotely.
Keep threats at a distance
Even good people make mistakes. A quick visit to a questionable site can result in data loss, network shutdowns, and time spent investigating and recovery. Forcepoint stands between you and malware by discovering and quarantining threats before it can get to the network. It automatically scans file uploads or downloads for malware and blocks it.
Get control over Shadow IT
Shadow IT puts data outside of your control. Quickly identify managed and unmanaged cloud apps in real time using your web proxy and firewall logs. Detect when users attempt to share data on non-managed cloud apps and guide them to a managed app.
Easy to deploy and use - from day one
One agent protection requires less manual work to deploy, configure and manage. Get custom app support or tech support 24/7/365.
