### "Miglior proxy usato fino ad ora"

November 2, 2023

5.0

Pros

Finalmente abbiamo trovato il proxy che ci riuscisse con facilità a creare dei filtri granulari in base all'utenza e venire incontro a situazioni particolari come elettromedicali. Finalmente siamo riusciti a controllare e filtrare siti in https cosa che non riuscivamo con il semplice firewall. Ottima anche la parte relativa ai controlli di sicurezza con un'ottima threat intelligence da parte di forcepoint

Cons

Non abbiamo riscontrato features negative in questo proxy

Alternatives considered

[Squid](https://www.capterra.com/p/246835/Squid/)

Reason for choosing Forcepoint Web Security

ha una gestione sicuramente molto più semplice

Switched from

[FortiGate Next-Generation Firewall](https://www.capterra.com/p/231835/FortiGate-Next-Generation-Firewalls/)

La navigazione web era controllato da un normale firewall ciò non ci permetteva di eseguire controlli e filtraggi specifici per siti di tipo https e filtrare in base all'utenza

### "Solution has gotten worse"

February 7, 2018

3.0

Pros

The software is very easy to set up and use once deployed. The user interface is pretty straight forward and pretty basic to use.

Cons

Forcepoint has really gotten worse with the years. Features could be a lot better and more granular. The solution is very expensive compared to their competitors and they make you pay extra for malware detection.

### "Triton Enterprise, the backbone of the Forcepoint brand"

April 5, 2019

4.0

Great. Support from the Forcepoint side is always top notch.

Pros

The Triton Enterprise package continues to be the backbone (single pane of glass) for that ties all their solutions into a polished gem. Its great if you own a number of Forcepoint solutions to be able to access them all from a single unified console.

Cons

You need robust hardware on the database side to ensure the front-end performance does not suffer. Wish they had a appliance model of this as well vs. running on windows.

### "Secure, Not Flexible"

July 17, 2019

4.0

We use it for email and web scanning (on premise).

Pros

The software helps you to keep your network secure. It also delivers performance for email and web traffic.

Cons

It is complex to configure. Also it is not very flexible. Transparent proxy is not possible. Proxy bypass rules have to be defined both it the proxy and in the firewall. That increases operational costs.

Reason for choosing Forcepoint Web Security

Our service partner gave this as only option.
