Configuring the Forcepoint Email Security module
Administrator Help | Forcepoint DLP | Version 8.7.x
The Forcepoint Email Security module resides on a V Series appliance. It filters inbound, outbound, and internal email messages for spam and viruses, and uses Forcepoint DLP to analyze content.
Forcepoint Email Security is automatically registered with the management server when you enter its subscription key in the Forcepoint Security Manager. Registration occurs when you enter this key for your first Forcepoint Email Security appliance. The key is propagated for all subsequent Forcepoint Email Security appliances.
